19 Easy Chicken Meal Prep Recipes

Creamy keto chicken soup

Avoid the Whole30 rut! With wholesome starches and powerful proteins, these paleo and Whole30 recipes will keep your plan fresh and satisfying.

Featuring an all-star, immune-friendly lineup of ingredients like garlic, ginger and turmeric, this creamy keto chicken soup recipe is as cozy as it is flavorful. The recipe starts with instructions to make your own stock from a whole chicken; if you want to save some time, start with pasture-raised, organic chicken broth and cook your chicken separately.

Buffalo chicken casserole

These all-in-one keto casserole recipes combine healthy fats, protein, and fiber-packed veggies into every dish -- all with very low carbs (and no cheese!).

Get all the flavor of a buffalo chicken wing feast in a cozy, filling casserole made without gluten or dairy. This buffalo chicken casserole is made with spaghetti squash, a versatile winter vegetable that shreds into noodle-like strands. Mix it up with avocado oil mayo, a vinegar-based hot sauce and a medley of diced vegetables for a satisfying dish that works just as well for lunch or dinner.

Chicken bacon ranch casserole

These all-in-one keto casserole recipes combine healthy fats, protein, and fiber-packed veggies into every dish -- all with very low carbs (and no cheese!).

Chicken, bacon and ranch is a flavorful combo, but store-bought ranch dressing is generally loaded with hydrogenated oils, MSG and sugar. Keep it simple and flavorful with a simple homemade ranch dressing — check out Bulletproof’s recipe here.

Low-carb baked chicken and cauliflower rice

Image via I Breathe I’m Hungry

This comforting baked chicken and cauliflower rice features tangy olives and bright lemon, but it’s easy to customize the flavors with your favorite herbs and spices. The best part? It’s made all in one dish. If it’s too hot to turn on the oven, the recipe includes a slow cooker option. If you want crispy skin, broil the chicken for a few minutes — you’ll have to dirty another pan, but it’s worth it for that delicious flavor.

Want an easy fried rice dish, minus the carb-bomb? This low-carb, flavorful meal comes together in just 35 minutes, and it’s easy to adjust based on your dietary needs. If you’re following the Bulletproof Diet, use coconut aminos instead of soy sauce and opt for sugar-free chili sauce.

Tired of chicken? Thanks to cumin, coriander, curry powder and garam masala, the flavorful spice mixture in this delicious skillet recipe will change your mind. If you’re sensitive to nightshades, skip the tomato sauce and use more water or pasture-raised chicken broth instead.

Low carb bok choy cashew chicken

No time? No problem. With this roundup of keto-friendly easy weeknight dinners, you need 30 minutes or less to make fresh, flavorful dishes.
Image via That’s Low Carb

Stir fries are made for meal prep because they’re an easy way to pack a ton of vegetables into a meal that reheats well and tastes even better the next day. In just 30 minutes, you’ll have four servings of lunch or dinner for the week.

Featuring chicken breast, asparagus, fresh lemon, garlic and ginger, this stir fry is packed with flavor and keeps perfectly well in the fridge.

Bacon makes almost everything better, and this slow cooker recipe is no exception. The bacon fat keeps the chicken moist and flavorful, especially if you’re cooking with chicken breasts, which can get dry in the slow cooker.
