Ingredients

• 12 leaves Swiss chard leaves
• 0.5 cup Almond flour
• 0.5 lb Ground pork
• 0.5 lb Ground beef
• 1 large Egg
• 0.5 cup Grated Parmesan cheese
• 2 tablespoons Scallions, finely chopped
• 1 teaspoon Garlic powder
• 1 teaspoon Onion powder
• 1 teaspoon Salt
• 0.5 teaspoon Black pepper
• 1 cup Heavy cream
• 1 cup Chicken broth
• 2 tablespoons Butter
• 2 tablespoons Fresh parsley, chopped

Directions

Step 1

Start by washing the Swiss chard leaves thoroughly. Blanch them quickly in boiling water for about 30 seconds, then immediately transfer them to an ice bath to stop the cooking. Pat them dry with paper towels.

Step 2

In a large mixing bowl, combine the ground pork, ground beef, almond flour, egg, Parmesan cheese, scallions, garlic powder, onion powder, salt, and black pepper. Mix until well combined.

Step 3

Lay each Swiss chard leaf flat on a clean surface. Place a spoonful of the meat mixture onto each leaf. Roll up tightly, tucking in the sides to secure the filling. Repeat until all leaves are filled.

Step 4

In a large saucepan, melt the butter over medium heat. Arrange the capuns seam-side down in the pan.

Step 5

Pour the chicken broth and heavy cream over the capuns. Bring the mixture to a gentle simmer, cover, and cook for about 20-25 minutes until the meat is cooked through and the sauce has thickened.

Step 6

Serve the keto capuns warm, garnished with fresh parsley. Enjoy as a delicious low-carb meal!
