Gaghtni Hav (Keto Modified)
Hidden Chicken Roast (Keto Modified)
Yes, with a tweak: absolutely no rice, bulgur, or other grain-based stuffing. About 5g net carbs per serving, lower than 6 in 10 Armenian dishes.
What it is
A whole chicken, traditionally stuffed and slow-roasted, is re-imagined for keto by omitting the carb-heavy stuffing. Instead, it's baked with a rich aromatic mix of garlic, herbs, and lemon, ensuring a flavorful and moist roast.
Key ingredients
Whole chicken, garlic, lemon, olive oil, various fresh herbs (e.g., rosemary, thyme, parsley), salt, black pepper.
How to make it keto
Absolutely no rice, bulgur, or other grain-based stuffing. Ensure only keto-friendly aromatics and herbs are used inside the chicken.
Watch out for
The primary risk is the traditional stuffing. Explicitly state 'no stuffing'. Also confirm no sugary glaze on the skin.
