Keto Honey-Mustard Chicken Bake is a creamy low-carb casserole made with tender chicken and a sugar-free honey mustard sauce. This easy keto chicken bake is perfect for meal prep, family dinners, and comforting low-carb meals with bold sweet-tangy flavor.

About This Recipe

Keto Honey-Mustard Chicken Bake (Sugar-Free) delivers the classic sweet-tangy flavor of honey mustard in a rich, comforting casserole — without the sugar or carbs. Traditional honey mustard relies heavily on sugar, but this keto version uses a sugar-free honey substitute combined with Dijon mustard and cream to create a sauce that’s bold, balanced, and deeply satisfying. The result is a baked chicken dish that feels indulgent while staying fully low-carb.

The recipe starts with seasoned chicken pieces that bake directly in a creamy honey-mustard sauce made from heavy cream, cream cheese, Dijon mustard, and sugar-free honey. As the casserole cooks, the sauce thickens and coats the chicken, creating a glossy, flavorful base. A light cheese topping melts into the surface, adding richness without overpowering the mustard flavor. The balance between tang, creaminess, and subtle sweetness makes this dish especially comforting and family-friendly.

This chicken bake is ideal for meal prep because it reheats extremely well and keeps its creamy texture. The flavors deepen overnight, making leftovers even better the next day. You can easily customize the dish by adding broccoli, spinach, or cauliflower, or by adjusting the mustard level for a sharper bite. Whether you’re expanding your Chicken Casserole board or need a reliable keto dinner that feels familiar and comforting, this honey-mustard bake is a strong addition.
