Instructions

Heat 1 tbsp cooking oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add chicken pieces and cook until browned on all sides and cooked through. Remove chicken from skillet and set aside.

Add the remaining 1 tbsp cooking oil to the same skillet (add a bit more if needed). Add carrots and broccoli florets. Sauté for 5-7 minutes until tender-crisp. Stir in spinach and cook until wilted, about 1-2 minutes. Remove vegetables and set aside with the chicken.

In the empty skillet, reduce heat to medium. Add flour and stir constantly for 1 minute to create a roux.

Gradually whisk in the almond milk, ensuring no lumps. Continue to whisk as the sauce thickens, about 3-5 minutes.

Stir in garlic powder, onion powder, oregano, thyme, paprika, parsley flakes, salt, and pepper into the creamy sauce. Taste and adjust seasoning as needed.

Return the cooked chicken and vegetables to the skillet, stirring to coat them evenly with the creamy sauce. Heat through for 2-3 minutes.

Final Notes

Serve this creamy chicken and vegetable skillet hot, either on its own for a low-carb option or with a side of plain rice to soak up the delicious sauce.
