Canard Rôti à l'Orange (Keto Modified Sauce)
Roasted Duck with Keto Orange Glaze and Keto Sides
Yes, with a tweak: request the orange sauce with minimal to no added sugar, or ask for it on the side. About 12g net carbs per serving, on the higher side for French food, so watch the portion.
What it is

Key ingredients
Whole duck or duck breast, duck fat, fresh orange zest (minimal), minimal orange juice, chicken/duck stock, butter, herbs (e.g., rosemary, thyme), salt, pepper.
How to make it keto
Request the orange sauce with minimal to no added sugar, or ask for it on the side. Omit any traditional potato, rice, or starchy vegetable sides. Substitute with green vegetables like sautéed spinach or green beans.
Watch out for
High sugar content in traditional orange sauce, flour/starch thickeners in sauce, starchy side dishes if not omitted.
