What it is
A simple yet elegant whole roasted chicken, typically seasoned with herbs (like rosemary or thyme) and garlic, yielding tender, juicy meat and crispy skin. Served here with fresh, butter-sautéed green vegetables instead of roasted potatoes or fries for a keto-friendly meal.
Key ingredients
Whole chicken (or half), olive oil/butter, garlic, rosemary/thyme, salt, pepper, green beans/asparagus, lemon (optional).
How to make it keto
Request no potatoes (roasted, mashed, or frites). Ask for green vegetables like green beans, asparagus, or broccoli, prepared simply with butter or olive oil.
Say this to the waiter (French)
Sans pommes de terre rôties ni autres féculents, s'il vous plaît. Puis-je avoir une bonne portion de légumes verts nature ? La sauce du poulet contient-elle du sucre ?
No roasted potatoes or starchy sides, please. Can I have a generous portion of plain green vegetables? Is there any sugar in the chicken glaze?
Watch out for
Traditional potato accompaniments (roasted potatoes, fries, mashed potatoes). Some restaurants might use sugary brines or glazes for roasting, so confirming a plain roast is best.
