How to Make Keto Rosemary Chicken {Quick Overview}

This is just a quick overview of some of the steps involved in making the keto sheet pan recipe. For the recipe in detail, including exact measurements used at each step, scroll to the recipe card at the end of the post.

First, prepare your baking sheet, add it to the oven, and turn on the oven to the preheat temp. Yes, you will be adding an empty baking sheet to the oven! This is one of my favorite kitchen tricks. By adding your chicken and vegetables to both a preheated oven and pan, they’ll roast better on the underside.

Then add all ingredients except Parmesan cheese to a large bowl and toss to evenly distribute the mixture.

TIPS:

  • If you don’t care for asparagus, you can use more cauliflower or substitute broccoli instead.
  • If you don’t have fresh rosemary, you can substitute 2 tsp dried rosemary. The rule-of-thumb for substituting dried herbs for fresh herbs (or vice versa) is 1 tbsp fresh to 1 tsp dried.

When the oven is preheated, carefully remove the hot baking sheet using an oven mitt. Add the chicken, asparagus, and cauliflower mixture in a single layer.

and bake!

TIP: If desired, after the chicken is fully cooked, remove the chicken and asparagus from the pan and roast the cauliflower for an additional 5 minutes.

When everything is done, divide into four equal portion sizes (use a food scale for the most precise measurements) and top each serving with 2 tbsp Parmesan cheese.

    I set this recipe aside for when I had a time crunch with the kids sports. What a great dish! Really simple to make, and the rosemary flavor was so good even my kids took to it. I’m going to try and make this dish with chicken breasts as well. Thank you for this.

    • Hi Brenda, Thank you so much for the kind review! I’m thrilled that the recipe was enjoyed by your kids too!

    Made this tonight, and used Brussel sprouts, onions and mushrooms. Used the pan juice to make gray and served over wild rice. I’m definitely making this again. Thank you!
