Coq au Vin (sans Accompagnements Amidonniers)
Chicken Braised in Red Wine (with Keto Vegetables)
Yes, with a tweak: omit all starchy accompaniments (potatoes, pasta, bread). About 11g net carbs per serving, on the higher side for French food, so watch the portion.
What it is
A classic French stew featuring chicken pieces (often dark meat) slow-cooked in a rich red wine sauce with bacon lardons, mushrooms, and pearl onions. Modified to be served with low-carb vegetables instead of traditional noodles or potatoes.
Key ingredients
Chicken pieces (thighs/drumsticks), red wine (Burgundy), bacon lardons, mushrooms, pearl onions (small amount), garlic, thyme, chicken stock, butter.
How to make it keto
Omit all starchy accompaniments (potatoes, pasta, bread). Confirm the sauce is not thickened with flour (roux) and that pearl onions are used sparingly or omitted if carb count is a concern.
Watch out for
Red wine contains residual sugars (concentrated in reduction), pearl onions are higher in carbs than other alliums, potential for flour-thickened sauce.
