simple easy keto dinners well today i have a really cool video for you we're
gonna be making some recipes that are perfect for this time of year when the weather's
getting warmer it's spring and summer and you want something quick and easy and
you want to put it in one pot or in this case one pan today i'm going to show you some
amazing keto sheet pan dinner recipes i'm down here at the bottom of my oven i like to
keep my sheet pans in my warming drawer because well don't we all so i'm gonna grab one of those
whiskey's down here too with me so this is what we're using to make our dinner on this is a sheet
pan i'm sorry if mine isn't the cleanest looking but i'm sure that most of your guys look like
this too and it's surprising you would think that this thing is humongous that there's no way you're
gonna have all this extra room like you don't like this thing fills up fast by by the time you put on
your protein and your vegetables it fills up fast uh but you could use a half sheet pan if you
wanted to use that for these recipes if you're just cooking for yourself or one other person
of course i'm going to go over all of the macros for you guys on each of these recipes plus i'm
going to give you guys some keto meal prep tips but before we get started with our first recipe
i actually want to thank our sponsor first bright sellers is a monthly wine membership program that
has sponsored this video it's so great because they actually pair wines that they think that
you're going to love just based off of a taste palette quiz that you take and i'm amazed at
how well they did when pairing wines for myself i am a person that loves like a full bodied red
wine and they did such a good job picking out wines that i would totally buy and i tried all
six of them and i love them each one is amazing and they come with these cards that kind of tell
you about the wine it tells you what notes to pick out from them like what fruity notes nutty notes
spicy notes things like that um it also tells you what it pairs best with too so different types
of food but also different types of occasions like this one it says it's great for social media
scrolling which i tried this one and it really is good for social media scrolling i could just
see myself sipping on this all night long and scrolling social media i wouldn't do that though
i limit myself to one glass sometimes two but there's other ones that say that they're great
for like family gatherings or weekend dinner parties and i would agree i would love to share
these wines with other people so definitely check them out i'll have all their information listed
down below in the description box for you but i wanted to give them a shout out first because
i want to pair each of these sheet pound dinner recipes that we're going to make along with one of
their wines bright cellars is giving our followers 50 off their first six bottle box follow
the link to take the quiz and get started the first sheet pan recipe that
we're gonna make is a roasted chicken this is gonna be in a buttery garlic
sauce along with some roasted vegetables we're going to start by making our
buttery marinade for the chicken i'm going to be using mayo just because i
love if you've ever had mayo with chicken before it's so good it just makes it super juicy
this is one quarter cup of avocado mayonnaise you'll also need a quarter cup
of melted butter and then mix in three cloves of minced garlic two tablespoons of
minced parsley two teaspoons of salt a teaspoon of pepper and a half a teaspoon of onion powder you
want to stir this together until it's all mixed up and then let's move on to cutting some of our
vegetables now the cool thing about making sheet pan dinners is that really you could just use
whatever vegetables that you have it's a great way to use up like leftover veggies that you have
in your fridge or throw some that are in the freezer you could sprinkle those on top of your
sheet pan the ones that i used for my sheet pan dinner was mushrooms and turnip turnip acts like
a roasted potato it's super good you could use another radish too if you wanted to use like a
daikon radish or purple radish those will work as well in this recipe and i'm also going to be
using some broccoli on my sheet pan i've lined it with foil because i want easy cleanup that's
the one thing that i love about sheet pan recipes is that you come home from work throw some stuff
on your sheet pan pop it in the oven and then you can do whatever you want for like a half hour 40
minutes maybe unwind watch some tv play with the dog play with the kids do some housework have
a glass of wine and then when it's done cooking then dinner's ready everything's all done from
your vegetables to your protein everybody eats and then cleanup is a breeze because hopefully
you cooked it on some foil you scrunch up that foil and you toss it in the trash and clean up is
done so onto our rimmed foil lime pan i'm going to lay down some chicken legs now this recipe if you
don't have chicken legs you can use chicken thighs chicken tenders chicken breast whatever type
of chicken you want to use you can do it for this recipe so i lay down those first and then i'm
going to put down my cut up vegetables so i have some mushrooms that i've quartered those turnips
that i diced and then some broccoli florets now comes the part we sauced this i'm just going
to brush over my sauce all over really paying attention to the chicken i'm going to put that
on there but i'm also going to put some on the vegetables as well make sure you get both sides of
your chicken if you wanted to you could actually marinate your chicken in this sauce like either
overnight or in the morning when you're going to work that also works adds a little bit more flavor
to it you could even add a little bit more salt to your chicken um just because there isn't
there's two teaspoons but if you're afraid that it's not going to be as salty as you'd like
you could add a little bit more and then we're going to bake this in the oven this goes in a
400 degree oven and it's going to take around 50 minutes to cook maybe an hour just kind of
depends on what kind of chicken you're cooking now this dinner i paired with the humdrum
wine this is a full body red wine it's a cabernet sauvignon and it says it was good
for friday nights in and that's what we're doing for this recipe this is more of a quick
dinner a friday night dinner for everybody and this is what i'm gonna drink with it up next we're going to be making a keto chicken
teriyaki with some vegetables on our sheet pan i'm gonna be using chicken tenders for this
recipe but you can use chicken thighs if you want i actually recommend the thighs over the tenders
just because chicken thigh meat tends to have a little bit more fat content in it compared to
a chicken breast or white meat like tenders but that was all i had on hand with chicken tenders
so that's why i'm using it now i'm gonna start by making up my teriyaki sauce first this is a
keto teriyaki sauce it's super simple to make you want to add a three quarter cups of soy
sauce to a bowl i'm using gluten-free soy sauce you don't have to use soy sauce if you don't want
because yes soy sauce does have carbs so if you're trying to go as low as carb as possible you can
just use liquid aminos if you wanted you also want to add in two tablespoons of golden sweetener i'm
using a golden monk fruit sweetener but you could use whatever golden sweetener is out there i have
one clove of minced garlic along with a half a teaspoon of grated ginger you could substitute
with powdered ginger here too then you'll also need two tablespoons of avocado oil a tablespoon
of apple cider vinegar and a teaspoon of tomato paste i like to add the tomato paste because i
think it just adds a little bit of extra flavor fish sauce works as a substitute too if you
don't have tomato paste on hand and then as a thickener because i want to thicken up this
sauce as it cooks i'm going to be adding in a half of a teaspoon of air root powder i like using
arrowroot powder as my thickener because it has seven times the ability to thicken compared to
regular flour it's gluten free it works better than xanthan gum because xanthan gum can make
your dish a little slimy if you add it as a thickener this one doesn't make it slimy at all
so you just have to add a little tiny amount we're going to whisk this together and then i'm
going to put this in a ziploc bag with my chicken tenders and i'm going to pour the sauce in there
and let my chicken tenders marinate for a little bit you don't have to marinate them at all if
you want to add the sauce just straight away onto your sheet pan put it in the oven you could i
think marinating it just really helps that chicken soak up some of that teriyaki flavor so that's
why i like to marinate it it's best if you do this first thing in the morning and then when you get
home from work lay everything out on your sheet pan and bake it for the vegetables i'm going to
be using some cut up orange bell pepper you could use whatever color bell pepper you want as well
as some broccoli and then some more mushrooms another vegetable idea that you could use would
be like asparagus would be good or green beans red onion those would also be perfect in this recipe
you want to pour all of your sauce on top of your chicken and vegetables don't worry about like
the raw chicken thing in the sauce because it's all going to get baked everything is going to get
killed you don't have to worry about any sort of food-borne pathogen here we're going to bake this
in a 375 degree oven for around 17 to 20 minutes i like to serve my keto chicken
teriyaki over cauliflower rice you could also lay down a bed of
green lettuce and put it on top of that and have a chicken teriyaki
salad that would be delicious as well now this dinner i am pairing with the cactus
park it's a red blend wine and it says that it has notes of cherry and it totally does i totally
smell the cherry and i think it's like blackberry too yeah it's really good and it really pairs well
with this i chose this one because the card said that it's great for grilled vegetable skewers
so these aren't really grilled vegetable skewers but it's something that would be in a grilled
vegetable skewer so that's why i chose this wine and i think it's excellent with it our next
keto sheet pan dinner that's perfect for spring or summer is the one that i got from my mom actually
she got it from a costco magazine so i kind of took it and made it more keto friendly and just
changed up a few little things but really the inspiration came from a costco magazine this is
going to be a bacon and brussels sheet pan dinner now i should preface because this dinner isn't
just kind of like a throw it in the sheet pan and you're done sort of thing it's a throat in the
sheet pan cook it for 10 minutes add some more things cook it a little bit longer sort of meal
but it's so worth it this is so delicious this works as like a side salad too if you wanted to
have like a side of some roasted vegetables along with something else but you could just have it as
a meal as well because it does have protein from the bacon and lots of vegetables and fat from the
sauce i'm going to be using one pack of bacon so this is about 12 slices of bacon i'm gonna cook
it in the air fryer first you want to use cooked bacon so whatever way you want to cook your bacon
is fine i love the airfryer because it's easy cleanup is simple but you could do it in the oven
or skillet too if you if that's easier for you so cook your bacon basically while our bacon is
cooking we're going to move on to making the sauce for this dish for the sauce i'm going to
add in a quarter cup of balsamic vinegar now balsamic vinegar does have carbohydrates in it try
and find one that has the lowest amount of carbs if you don't want to use balsamic vinegar
you could try a different kind of vinegar like the original recipe asked for champagne
vinegar which i didn't have i love the flavor of balsamic vinegar in this dish you could try
apple cider vinegar if you wanted maybe even a red wine vinegar would be good here you'll also
need a quarter cup of olive oil two tablespoons of dijon mustard a teaspoon of salt a half a teaspoon
of pepper and then for a little bit of sweetness i'm going to add in a teaspoon of sugar-free maple
syrup you want to whisk this together and set it aside you want the flavors just to kind of meld
together as we work on the rest of the recipe once your bacon is cooked you want to set it aside
to cool and then you're going to crumble it up now save that leftover baking grease because we're
going to use that to coat our brussels sprouts so toss your halved brussels sprouts into some bacon
grease and then lay that down onto your sheet pan and we're going to roast this at 400 degrees for
10 minutes next we're going to take that out of the oven and i'm going to add to those roasted
brussels sprouts some chopped up asparagus and some frozen green beans spread that out onto
your sheet pan pop it back into the oven and cook it for another 10 minutes now that all
of your vegetables are roasted we're gonna assemble this so we're also gonna add in
our crumbled bacon a third cup of walnuts and then just drizzle that sauce
all over and give it a good toss now another option is that you guys could add
some cooked chicken to this like if you had a rotisserie chicken just shred some up and put it
in this dish as well be so good with that sauce for this bacon and brussels sheet pan dinner i'm
going to be pairing it with the silverscape wine this one it's a full body red wine it says it is
great for family gatherings and i like to serve this dish um as like a side dish like i said it's
great for like a spring and summer potluck and this wine would pair excellent with it for our
next keto sheet pan dinner recipe we're gonna be making up some roasted shrimp and i thought
we would cover it with a cilantro lime sauce let's start by making up our sauce you're
gonna need a quarter cup of lime juice three tablespoons of avocado oil a teaspoon of
ground cumin a teaspoon of lime zest and then you also need a teaspoon and a half of grated
ginger along with one clove of minced garlic and then for a little bit of heat i like to add
in a pinch of red pepper you could omit this step if you don't want it spicy whisk that together
and then we're going to lay out our sheet pan so i have about a pound and a half of shrimp on
here and then for our vegetables we're going to be using bell pepper cherry tomato and asparagus
and that cherry tomato i'm also going to add in a few cloves of whole garlic in there i'm going to
just separate these out just because sometimes the shrimp can cook a little bit longer and depending
on the type of meal that you're going for if you want to have those tomatoes burst after you remove
the shrimp you can put the tomatoes back in there and roast them a little bit longer we're gonna be
covering our shrimp and our vegetables with this cilantro lime sauce i mean i know there's no
cilantro in it yet we're gonna add it at the end but just pour that over and make
sure everything gets evenly coated i'm going to salt the shrimp a little bit just to
add a little bit of flavor to that it's going to go in a 400 degree oven to roast once it's done
you can just mix everything together and serve it just like this i actually like to serve mine
over some lettuce some kale and green leaf lettuce a little bit of radish in there too and
then i like to make up some more of that lime vinaigrette dressing and then pour that
on top don't forget the cilantro that's the finishing touch to this dish and now the wine that
we're going to pair this with this one is called aqua forte it is a medium bodied wine and it
says it's great for social media scrolling so this is like a total meal that you could
just have on your own if you want something light and healthy and you want to scroll some
social media this is going to be your recipe there you have it those are our four easy keto
