CHICKEN HAM AND TURNIP PASTA

CHICKEN HAM AND TURNIP PASTA

CHICKEN HAM AND TURNIP PASTA

This Chicken Ham and Turnip Pasta is a delicious and satisfying keto-friendly meal that's packed with flavor and nutrients. It’s a fantastic alternative to traditional pasta dishes, using turnip noodles to keep the carb count low and the healthy fats high. If you are following a ketogenic diet, or simply looking for a tasty, healthy dinner, this recipe is definitely worth a try. The savory chicken ham complements the slightly sweet turnip, creating a balanced and satisfying dish you'll want to make again and again.

Ingredients

200g Chicken Ham, diced

500g Turnips, spiralized or julienned into noodles

2 tbsp Olive Oil

1 clove Garlic, minced

100ml Heavy Cream

50g Parmesan Cheese, grated

2 tbsp Butter

Salt and Pepper to taste

Optional: Fresh Parsley, chopped for garnish

Cooking Instructions

    1. Prepare the turnip noodles. If using a spiralizer, create noodles from the turnips. Alternatively, julienne them into thin strips.

    2. In a large skillet, heat the olive oil over medium heat. Add the minced garlic and cook until fragrant, about 30 seconds. Be careful not to burn the garlic.

    3. Add the diced chicken ham to the skillet and cook until lightly browned, approximately 5-7 minutes.

    4. Add the turnip noodles to the skillet. Stir occasionally, cooking until the turnips are tender-crisp, around 8-10 minutes. Cooking time may vary depending on the thickness of the turnip noodles.

    5. Reduce the heat to low. Stir in the heavy cream, parmesan cheese, and butter. Season with salt and pepper to taste.

    6. Simmer for a few minutes, allowing the sauce to thicken slightly and the flavors to meld together. Stir frequently to prevent sticking.

    7. Remove from heat and serve immediately.

      Pro Tips and Variations

      For a richer flavor, consider adding a splash of dry white wine to the skillet after cooking the chicken ham. Allow the wine to reduce slightly before adding the turnip noodles.

      If you don't have heavy cream on hand, you can substitute with cream cheese or sour cream, but adjust the amount to taste.

      Add other vegetables like spinach or mushrooms for added nutrients and texture.

      For a spicier dish, add a pinch of red pepper flakes.

      To ensure the turnips are tender-crisp and not mushy, avoid overcooking.

      Servings & Cook Time

      Servings: 2-3

      Prep Time: 15 minutes

      Cook Time: 20 minutes

      Serving Suggestions

      Serve the Chicken Ham and Turnip Pasta hot, garnished with fresh parsley and an extra sprinkle of parmesan cheese. For a complete keto meal, pair it with a side salad dressed with olive oil and vinegar. Consider serving it in a shallow bowl to showcase the dish's textures and colors. A simple green salad with avocado would be a complementary side. For an elegant presentation, arrange the turnip pasta in a nest shape and top with the chicken ham mixture.
