What it is
A whole chicken stuffed with a rich, aromatic paste made from finely ground walnuts, sautéed onions, and traditional spices, then baked. (Traditionally includes pomegranate molasses and prunes, which are modified for keto).
Key ingredients
Whole chicken, walnuts, onion, cooking oil, salt, pepper, minimal pomegranate molasses (or omitted), spices.
If you order it anyway
CRITICAL: Request very minimal or NO pomegranate molasses and NO dried fruits (prunes) in the stuffing. Confirm no sugar is added to the walnut paste beyond what's naturally in onions/walnuts.
Watch out for
Pomegranate molasses is very high in sugar; prunes are high in natural sugars. These are core traditional ingredients that must be significantly reduced or omitted.
