Garniture Financière (Vol-au-Vent sans Pâte)
Creamy Chicken and Mushroom Filling (Vol-au-Vent Style)
Yes, with a tweak: crucially omit the puff pastry shell. About 6g net carbs per serving.
What it is
A luxurious and rich creamy mixture of tender chicken pieces and sautéed mushrooms, simmered in a white wine and heavy cream sauce. Traditionally served in a pastry shell, this version omits the carb-heavy pastry.
Key ingredients
Chicken breast or thighs, mushrooms (e.g., cremini, button), heavy cream, dry white wine, chicken broth, shallots, butter, olive oil, tarragon, chervil, salt, black pepper.
How to make it keto
Crucially omit the puff pastry shell. Ensure no flour is used to thicken the sauce (achieve thickness by reduction or using heavy cream). Serve with a side of sautéed green vegetables.
Watch out for
Flour thickeners in the sauce, hidden sugars in some commercial stocks, high-carb side dishes (rice, potatoes).
