Chicken with Creamy Mushroom Sauce and Sauteed Kale

by Lauren Allen on Jun 20, 2022

Did you think that PCOS-friendly dinners had to be boring and bland? Because they donโ€™t!ย 

This chicken with creamy mushroom sauce and sautรฉed kale is bursting with flavor but is also a great balanced meal since itโ€™s filled with protein, leafy greens, and healthy fats, and fiber.ย 


One of the main staples in a PCOS diet is to keep your blood sugar balanced, since unbalanced blood sugars fuel insulin resistance, which is one of the most common underlying causes of PCOS. The other nutrient-dense, anti inflammatory ingredients in this dish help combat chronic inflammation, another one of the root causes of PCOS.ย
