What it is
A rustic French dish where chicken pieces are braised in red wine (typically Burgundy) with mushrooms, crispy bacon lardons, and a few pearl onions, resulting in a rich, flavorful sauce. This keto version emphasizes extra braised mushrooms and bacon, omitting traditional potato or pasta accompaniments.
Key ingredients
Chicken pieces (thighs/drumsticks), bacon, red wine, chicken broth, mushrooms, pearl onions, garlic, butter, herbs.
If you order it anyway
Ensure the sauce is not thickened with flour. Request no potatoes, noodles, or other carby sides. Confirm the absence of any added sugars in the sauce.
Watch out for
Red wine reduction can concentrate sugars. Flour may be used to thicken the sauce. Pearl onions contribute to the carb count. Restaurants might add sugar to balance the sauce.
