Canard à l'Orange (Sauce Keto)
Roasted Duck Breast with Keto Orange Glaze
Yes, with a tweak: request the orange sauce be made without sugar, traditional orange juice, or cornstarch/flour thickeners. About 10g net carbs per serving, on the higher side for French food, so watch the portion.
What it is
Crispy-skinned pan-seared or roasted duck breast, served with a carefully crafted, sugar-free orange-flavored sauce, emphasizing the rich duck flavor.
Key ingredients
Duck breast, duck fat, orange zest, orange extract, keto-friendly sweetener (erythritol/stevia), butter, white wine (trace), chicken or duck broth.
How to make it keto
Crucially, request the orange sauce be made without sugar, traditional orange juice, or cornstarch/flour thickeners. Opt for a reduction with orange zest/extract and a keto sweetener if available, or simply enjoy the duck plain. Omit any starchy accompaniments like potato purée.
Watch out for
Traditional orange sauce (high in sugar and often thickened with flour/cornstarch), starchy sides (potatoes, rice), candied fruits.
