Braised Beef Cheeks with Rich Herb Sauce
Yes, keto as served. About 9g net carbs per serving.
What it is
Tender beef cheeks slow-braised until meltingly soft in a deeply flavorful sauce infused with onions, garlic, and a medley of aromatic herbs. A hearty and comforting main dish, traditionally served without grains.
Key ingredients
Beef cheeks, beef broth, olive oil, onions, garlic, bay leaf, thyme, parsley, red wine (optional, for deglazing; most sugar cooks off), salt, black pepper.
Optional tweaks
Confirm no flour-based thickeners are used in the sauce. Ensure any root vegetables used for broth flavor (like carrots/celery) are minimal and removed before serving.
Watch out for
Moderate carbs from onions. Trace carbs from red wine (if used) after cooking. Potential hidden flour thickeners in a restaurant setting.
