Salmon in Creamy Tomato Basil Sauce

Salmon in Creamy Tomato Basil Sauce

A luxurious dish that’s quick and easy to make. Because you deserve the best of all possible worlds.

Keyword: Chef Taffiny Elrod, Creamy Tomato Basil
Keto Chow Flavor: Creamy Tomato Basil
Recipe Creator: Chef Taffiny Elrod
Servings: 1 4 oz. piece of salmon and about 1/3 cup sauce
Calories: 267.4kcal
Author: Taffiny Elrod

Ingredients

  • 1 lb. skin-on salmon filet
  • 2 Tbsp. mild olive oil or avocado oil
  • 6 fresh cloves garlic, chopped
  • Pinch red pepper flakes
  • 1 medium tomato, sliced (6 oz.)
  • 1/4 tsp. kosher slat plus extra for seasoning salmon
  • 1/4 tsp. ground black pepper plus extra for seasoning salmon
  • 1/2 cup dry white wine or 1/2 cup broth with 1 Tbsp. white wine vinegar
  • 1/2 cup warm fish broth or chicken broth
  • 1 serving Creamy Tomato Basil Keto Chow
  • 2 Tbsp. heavy cream
  • 1/4 cup loosely packed fresh basil leaves, cut into thin ribbons, plus extra for garnish

Instructions

  • Trim the salmon, check for any bones and scales, and cut into four equal pieces. Pat the skin of each piece dry and season the flesh side lightly with salt and pepper.
  • Place a large, heavy skillet over medium-high heat. When the pan is hot, add the oil.
  • When the oil is shimmering, carefully place the salmon in the pan skin side down.
  • Allow the salmon to cook undisturbed for about three minutes, or until the salmon begins to look opaque on the sides.
  • Use a pair of tongs to gently test the salmon. If it moves freely, turn it over. If it is stuck to the pan, let it cook for another 30 seconds or more until it frees easily from the pan.
  • Cook the salmon on the other side for another two minutes or until almost fully cooked. It should look opaque almost all the way through and be fairly firm to the touch.
  • Transfer the salmon to a plate and make the sauce.
  • Add chopped garlic to the same pan and cook until it begins to brown lightly. Add the red pepper flake and sizzle in the oil briefly.
  • Add the tomatoes, salt, and pepper to the pan and cook, stirring with a wooden spoon to scrape up anything stuck to the bottom of the pan.
  • When the tomatoes begin to soften, add the white wine to the pan, turn the heat to high and cook, stirring occasionally until the wine is reduced by at least half. Then reduce the heat to low.
  • Mix the Keto Chow with the warm broth, stirring until the Keto Chow is dissolved.
  • Whisk the Keto Chow mixture into the sauce in the pan and mix well.
  • Add the heavy cream and fresh basil and stir together.
  • Place the salmon back in the pan and heat gently until the salmon is warmed through and the sauce is hot. Don’t let the sauce boil.
  • Serve salmon and sauce garnished with fresh basil.
  • Store leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to three days.

Notes

Notes: Serve with zucchini noodles, or cauliflower rice and a green salad for a Mediterranean inspired plate that will make any meal feel special.

Keyword: Banana, Chef Taffiny Elrod, Chocolate Toffee
Keto Chow Flavor: Banana, Chocolate Toffee
Recipe Creator: Chef Taffiny Elrod
Servings: 1 6 oz. parfait
Calories: 520.2kcal
Author: Taffiny Elrod

Equipment

  • electric mixer, vegetable peeler

Ingredients

Cookie Crumb Layer

  • 1 cup fine almond flour (3 oz.)
  • 2 Tbsp. salted butter
  • 1 Tbsp. brown erythritol blend

Toffee Layer

Banana Layer

Whipped Cream Topping

Instructions

  • Start with the cookie crumb layer by melting the butter in a medium nonstick skillet, over low heat. Add the almond flour and cook, stirring regularly until the flour starts to brown lightly and smell fragrant.
  • Sprinkle the brown erythritol blend over the almond flour and stir well. Transfer to a heatproof dish and set aside to cool.
  • When cool, place two Tbsp. of the crumb mixture on the bottom of six serving bowls or glasses.
  • To make the toffee, melt the butter over low heat, add the sweetener, and stir until dissolved.
  • Add the heavy cream and vanilla extract to the butter and whisk to combine. Heat until bubbles start to form at the edge of the pan. Stir again and remove from the heat.
  • Allow the mixture to cool slightly, then whisk in the Chocolate Toffee Keto Chow until fully dissolved. The mixture will begin to thicken. While it’s still warm, pour 1/4 cup of the toffee over the crumb layer in each dish and gently smooth to even.
  • Place in the refrigerator to chill while you make the banana layer.
  • To make the banana layer, combine the heavy cream, almond milk, Banana Keto Chow, and powdered erythritol in a large mixing bowl. Beat with an electric mixer until the Keto Chow is fully dissolved and the mixture has increased in volume and holds stiff peaks.
  • Spread 1/4 cup of the banana mixture over the toffee layer in each dish.
  • Make the whipped cream. Place the heavy cream, powdered erythritol, and vanilla extract in a large mixing bowl. Beat with an electric mixer until the mixture holds stiff peaks.
  • Place two Tbsp. of the whipped cream on top of the banana layer in each cup.
  • Shave the edge of the piece of chocolate with a vegetable peeler or grater to make chocolate shavings.
  • Sprinkle about half a tsp. of the shavings over the whipped cream in each dish.
  • Chill parfaits in the refrigerator for at least 30 minutes before serving.
  • Store the parfaits covered in the refrigerator for up to three days.

Spicy Taco Slow Simmered Greens

Spicy Taco Slow Simmered Greens

This riff on traditional, slow cooked greens is tender and full of savory flavor.  Buy a bag of pre-washed and chopped greens, or even frozen greens to make this dish even easier to bring together!
Prep Time10 minutes

Keyword: Chef Taffiny Elrod, Spicy Taco Soup Base
Keto Chow Flavor: Spicy Taco Soup
Recipe Creator: Chef Taffiny Elrod
Servings: 1 1/2 cup
Calories: 98.6kcal
Author: Taffiny Elrod

Ingredients

  • 2 Tbsp. olive oil or bacon fat
  • 1 small onion, sliced
  • 3 cloves garlic, sliced
  • 1 plum tomato, sliced
  • 1 small red bell pepper or red jalapeno pepper, sliced
  • 1 smoked turkey neck or ham bone
  • 1/2 lb. collard greens, washed and cut or torn into 1" ribbons*
  • 1/2 lb. kale, washed and cut or torn into 1" ribbons
  • 2 1/2 cups water, divided
  • 1/2 tsp. salt
  • 1 Tbsp. vinegar
  • 1 serving Spicy Taco Soup Keto Chow

Instructions

  • Heat the oil over medium heat in a large Dutch oven or soup pot with a heavy lid.
  • Add the onion, garlic, tomato, and bell pepper and cook until the onion is translucent and the vegetables are fragrant. Then add the turkey neck to the pot.
  • Add all the greens, then stir and cover the pot. After one minute, open the lid and stir again.
  • If all the greens don’t fit at first, put as many as you can and wait until some have wilted, then add the rest.
  • Add 1 cup of water, and the salt and vinegar. Stir again and cover the pot.
  • Reduce heat to low and simmer for approximately 40 minutes, stirring occasionally and checking to make sure there is enough liquid inside the pot. You don’t want the bottom of the pot to scorch.
  • After 40 minutes, mix the Keto Chow with 1 1/2 cups water and stir into the greens.
  • Simmer for another 10 minutes.
  • Remove the neck bone or ham bone and shred any meat to mix into greens if desired.
  • Serve as a side with your favorite main course. This dish is especially good with roasted and barbecued meats, keto cornbread, or Creamy Keto Baked Cauliflower and Cheese.

Notes

*This recipe calls for collard greens and kale, but mustard greens, turnip greens, and even cabbage are all delicious prepared this way.
The nutrition information does not include the ham hock/turkey neck option of shredded meat.

Total Time50 minutes
Course: Snacks
Keyword: sarah deyoung, Savory Chicken Soup
Keto Chow Flavor: Savory Chicken Soup
Recipe Creator: Sarah DeYoung
Servings: 5 crackers
Calories: 152.1kcal

Ingredients

Instructions

  • Whip the cream cheese in a large mixing bowl with an electric mixer until it is soft.
  • Add the Keto Chow and olive oil; beat until combined.
  • Add the coconut flour and cheese; beat until it starts to come together into a dough.
  • Add the heavy cream and beat again. It should form a stiff, slightly tacky dough.
  • Preheat the oven to 350℉.
  • Divide the dough in two and shape each half into a rectangular block.
  • Place one half of the dough between two pieces of parchment paper and roll the dough out into a large rectangle 1/8 inch thick. It doesn’t have to be perfect! You can trim the edges and use the trimmed pieces to repair any parts that are too thin.
  • Remove the parchment paper from the top. Use a large knife, pastry cutter, or pizza cutter to score the dough into 1 1/2 inch squares (or any shape you prefer).
  • Transfer the dough, still on the parchment paper, to a large baking sheet. Use a fork to prick the center of each cracker to help them crisp while baking.
  • Repeat with the other half of the dough.
  • Bake on the center rack of the oven for about 20 minutes, rotating the trays halfway through baking. When the crackers are done, they will be brown around the outer edges and on the bottoms and just starting to brown lightly on the tops. If the crackers aren’t lightly browned, they won’t be crispy when they cool.
  • Transfer them to a cooling rack and allow to cool completely before breaking them apart along the scoring.
  • Store in an airtight container in a cool, dry place for up to three days. Store in the freezer for up to three months.

  • 10 oz. 85/15 ground beef
  • 10 oz. pork sausage
