An easy one-pot keto dinner with chicken thighs and a creamy ranch cheese sauce with bacon and spinach. Serve over cauliflower rice or mash, topped with Cheddar cheese and additional bacon if desired.
Between AllRecipes app continuously resetting the ingredient list from 2 servings to 6, and the Insta-Pot not working the way the directions say it's supposed to, this dinner took nearly twice as long to prepare and in my opinion was not very good. My son pronounced it "ok" and ate his dinner, so I guess we will be trying it again at some point. Prior reviews were pretty spot on about adding extra bacon though.
Read MoreExcellent. The whole family raved about it. However, I didn't make it in my Instant Pot. I cooked my in a dutch oven. I removed the cooked bacon but didn't remove the chicken as directed. I just added everything in the pot (except the spinach). I also added a chopped onion and let it all simmer for 15 minutes. I cooked the spinach in a separate pan and added it at the end. It was yummy.
This was a good recipe. I had quite a bit of sauce left over and not enough chicken. Next time I'll use 2-2.5lbs of boneless/skinless chicken thighs. Didn't have spinach on hand so served with broccoli. My kids loved it!
This was a great meal! I added a few extra strips of bacon and used 2 Tbs of the ranch dressing (1 pouch) it gave it a little extra ranch flavor. The family requested that this goes on the make again list. This is as good of a complement that you could wish for.
My family LOVED this. Like others I needed to add more chicken, I used 2 lbs of thighs and 8 slices of bacon. I also used broccoli instead of spinach. Major win with the kids.
This was great! I used bone in thighs and took the skin off. I added some bacon bits as I did not have any bacon on hand. I topped riced cauliflower with the ranch/cream cheese sauce. Thank you for the recipe, this is a keeper!
I "sort of" made it. I had a boneless skinless breast that I didn't know what to do. I had poached it but from there, what was I to do with it? Thought this would be good. Here lies the problem: (1) hubby hates chicken to begin with, but I still make it sometimes but he also has dental problems so food can't be chunky so it wound up being shredded; (2) I didn't have the Ranch Dressing packet-thought I did but...;(3) hubby also hates "white" sauces so I had to disguise it with a little Kitchen Bouquet. Otherwise, I had the cream cheese and I used some Bleu Cheese dressing about a tbsp and a tsp. of Ranch that came with his wings last week. I also added onions. He didn't put much on his plate and when I asked how it was, he said "it's edible." LOL I have a weird hubby. The list of things he doesn't like would fill a book. I will make it again with all the proper ingredients next time. Yeah, i'll make it again but still have to disguise the sauce. I liked it. I had a little left over so I will try it on my son when he comes home. He'll eat anything.
I’m new to the instant pot and the directions were easy to follow. I will definitely make this again.
Besides the Instant Pot malfunction, this recipe was delicious! I added extra chicken and extra bacon, and used broccoli instead of spinach. Thanks!
This recipe has huge ranch flavor and the sauce is incredible over mashed potatoes! The chicken was very tender. I did use fresh spinach and it worked great. The sauce thickened after a few mins on the plate. Fantastic recipe!
Stuck to the recipe with the sole exception being bone-in thighs. Absolutely delicious! And loved by the whole family. A must keep!
It was amazing! I'll be honest, I have used Allrecipes for years, but never written a review.. I made it just as written, and everyone gave it 5 stars. So good!
So good and so easy! I substituted the frozen spinach with 6 cups fresh baby spinach and still turned out super yummy.

Overall tasty and easy to make. I forgot to bring cream cheese to room temp and it clumped when adding it.
Guys in my house enjoyed it. Might cook the chicken to be shredded first, and then make the sauce and spinach. Great recipe to tweak.
I don't have an Instant Pot, so I did everything on the stove top, then put it in a chicken roaster pan at a low temp for an hour and a half. WE LOVED THIS! I was tempted to throw some fresh mushroom slices in, but I like to follow a recipe the way it is printed first time trying it. So, tomorrow night with the leftovers, I will saute onions and mushrooms and add it.
Absolutely delicious recipe that’s also looks impressive when served. It makes a beautiful presentation and will impressive your family and guest. Like others, the only thing I did differently was to use bone-in thighs and it turned out perfectly. My husband was licking his plate!!!! It’s a keeper!!!
Best keto recipe for chicken yet! Excellent as is, but I had a greek spinach salad to go with it so I added a. little Feta cheese to the mix. I also used fresh spinach and chicken breasts instead of thighs
The recipe is amazing as written! The only thing I have done differently is doubling the chicken stock to make a thinner sauce so I can serve it over rice.
Oh my word! This was great. I left out the spinach just because I didn't have any and next time I may throw in some onion. Delicious!
It was great. Used fresh chopped up baby spinach, and bacon drippings from already cooked bacon. Then added cooked bacon. (We cook bacon or sausage ahead of time so we have grab and go food for breakfast through the week).Oh...also only did 10 min pressure instead of 12, because of less chicken.
