Noix de Saint-Jacques Poêlées au Beurre Blanc et Asperges
Pan-Seared Scallops with Beurre Blanc and Asparagus
Yes, keto as served. About 6g net carbs per serving.
What it is
Succulent pan-seared scallops (noix de Saint-Jacques) cooked to a golden perfection, served with a classic, rich beurre blanc sauce (a reduction of white wine and shallots emulsified with generous amounts of butter). Accompanied by fresh, tender asparagus spears.
Key ingredients
Large scallops, butter, shallots, dry white wine, cream (optional, for sauce stability), lemon juice, asparagus, salt, pepper.
Optional tweaks
Confirm no flour is used to thicken the beurre blanc (classic beurre blanc does not use flour). Ensure asparagus is served without high-carb additions.
Watch out for
Hidden flour in beurre blanc (though traditionally keto). Shallots contribute a small amount of carbs. White wine reduction leaves minimal residual carbs.
