Ingredients
  

To make the shredded chicken:

  • 2 lbs Boneless skinless chicken thighs
  • 1 Packet dry onion soup mix
  • 1 c Chicken broth

To prepare the casserole:

  • 1 Medium onion thinly sliced
  • 2 tbsp Butter unsalted
  • 2 tbsp White cooking wine

  • ½ tsp Oregano
  • ½ tsp Thyme
  • ½ c Beef broth
  • 1 c Shredded mozzarella cheese

Instructions
 

  • Place the chicken, chicken broth and 1 packet of onion soup mix into the Instant pot.
  • Seal the Instant pot, and set to 20 minutes. Let it slow release, and then remove the chicken and shred it with a fork. If you want to cut down on the prep time, or do not have an Instant Pot, you can use any shredded chicken or even a rotisserie chicken if you like.
  • Heat 2 tbsp of butter in a skillet over medium heat.
  • Add the sliced onion, and cook down for 15 minutes slowly.
  • Pour in 2 tbsp of white cooking wine, and cook down until almost completely absorbed.
  • Mix in 2 tsp minced garlic, oregano, thyme and beef broth. Cook down for several more minutes.
  • Line the bottom of a greased baking dish with the shredded chicken.
  • Pour the onion mixture over the shredded chicken, and smooth it out evenly.
  • Sprinkle the mozzarella cheese over the chicken.
  • Place 6 slices of swiss cheese on top of the chicken in an even layer.
  • Bake the mixture for 10 minutes, remove and top with the pork rind crumbs. Cook for an additional 5 minutes, remove, and serve with your favorite keto-friendly sides.
