Best Pancetta Salad Recipe

Salads are a must on your keto diet! Our low-carb pancetta salad is a delicious recipe that you can enjoy for lunch or a quick snack. It's also a perfect side dish.

You will love this combination of smoked pancetta, tender chestnuts, crispy walnuts, fresh mixed greens bathed in rich olive oil and lemon juice.

Endives add a beautiful bitterness, just make sure they are fresh and crispy. Witlof is also a great choice and Lollo Rosso –red leaf lettuce will add a lovely pop of magenta.

It sure looks as good as it tastes!

Ingredients 

  • 3 cups Mixed Greens

  • ½ teaspoon Salt
  • ¼ teaspoon Black Pepper

Instructions

  • Carve a line or a cross into the top of each chestnut, and cook in a dry, hot pan tossing, for 10-15 minutes until the flesh is tender. Peel and discard the skins.
