Keto Creamy Sundried Tomato Chicken Casserole is a low-carb bake with chopped cooked chicken, cream cheese, heavy cream, parmesan, mozzarella, and sun-dried tomatoes. This Keto Creamy Sundried Tomato Chicken Casserole delivers a rich white sauce, oven-browned cheese, and no pasta or starch — a clean keto dinner.

About This Recipe

Keto Creamy Sundried Tomato Chicken Casserole removes pasta and replaces it with protein and a white cream-cheese base. Because there is no starch thickener, the sauce depends on softened cream cheese and grated parmesan to stabilize fat. Heavy cream loosens the base so it coats chicken instead of forming a paste. Sun-dried tomatoes add concentrated acidity without extra liquid, which prevents water separation.

Chicken must be cooked and chopped before assembly because raw chicken releases liquid and dilutes the casserole. Browned or baked chicken both work. Once chopped, chicken is folded into a cream mixture so distribution stays even. Parmesan adds salt and structure. Mozzarella forms the top layer and browns under heat.

The casserole bakes uncovered so moisture can leave the surface. This prevents the top from steaming and keeps cheese from turning rubbery. Everything in the base is already cooked, so oven time focuses on melting and browning. Three to five minutes of rest helps the mixture firm for clean servings.

This dish does not require vegetables inside the sauce. Spinach can be added sparingly if desired but is optional. The flavor is driven by cream, cheese, and tomatoes rather than herbs. Black pepper supplies enough heat. No broth is required, which keeps carbs low and prevents thinning.

The casserole stores cleanly and reheats without separation. It supports meal prep because chicken and sauce do not break.
