Chicken is among the most popular proteins people eat when they decide to go on a low carb diet — and understandably so. Chicken is packed with protein, easy to make, and fits right into a low carb diet with minimal effort. However, it’s easy to fall into the trap of making chicken so often that it becomes boring, bland, and in dire need of some carbs! Luckily, there are countless ideas for bringing some excitement back into this staple protein while keeping the low carb properties intact. All you need to get started are the best low carb chicken recipes that will fit into any meal — especially lunch.
These 25 make-ahead, low-fuss, and portable low carb chicken recipes take minimal time and ingredients, but have a ton of flavor.
Low carb chicken recipes for lunch don’t have to be the same old reheated grilled chicken and veggies or fast food cold chicken on a salad. With some creativity and just a little planning ahead, chicken can make a delicious low carb, protein-packed lunch. The trick is to plan and make your meals ahead of time (still with minimal effort) so you don’t have to think about it when you’re hungry. It’s like the present “you” is taking care of the future “you” (and all versions of you will appreciate the effort — especially the one standing on the scale). After you’ve got your lunches figured out, you can work on planning out your low-carb breakfasts.
