This delicious keto Chicken Parmesan recipe is an easy to make air fryer dinner for two full of savory Italian flavors, low carb style!

Chicken Parmesan, or chicken Parm, as so many affectionately call it, is such a classic dish. So easy, so tasty, and so satisfying. 
But the traditional method isn’t a great match for a low carb diet. The carbs in those bread crumbs add up quickly, and if you’re trying to stay in ketosis with a traditional chicken parm, you’ll likely have a tough time.

But there’s hope! This lighter version cuts the calories and carbs without sacrificing any of that delicious Italian flavor. Get ready for an easy, satisfying, dinner for two with just a few simple ingredients!

What ingredients do I need for air fryer Chicken Parmesan?

• Chicken Breasts
• Shredded Mozzarella Cheese
• Tomato Sauce – I prefer Rao’s. This brand makes a low carb sauce that’s absolutely delicious. It is on the pricier side, though, so just use whatever works best for you!
• Italian Seasoning
• Salt
• Pepper
• Cooking Spray
• Optional but recommended “breading”: Crushed Pork rinds, Grated Parmesan

I think just about anyone could make this recipe. It’s certainly the easiest Chicken Parmesan I’ve ever made, and it was gobbled up in even shorter time than it was cooked!

What’s a good keto friendly breadcrumb substitute?

Pork rinds is the most popular. I especially love them mixed with grated Parmesan cheese, especially in a recipe like this. You can just do equal parts pork rinds and Parmesan and you’ll be good to go for a delicious crunch that reminds you of breadcrumbs.
