Hunter's Schnitzel (Unbreaded) with Creamy Mushroom Sauce and Green Beans
Yes, with a tweak: absolutely essential: request the schnitzel 'ohne Panade' (without breading/flour). About 8g net carbs per serving.
What it is
A popular German dish featuring a pork or veal cutlet. Traditionally, the schnitzel is breaded and pan-fried, then topped with a rich creamy mushroom sauce. The keto modification involves preparing the cutlet without breading and choosing low-carb sides.
Key ingredients
Pork or veal cutlet, fresh mushrooms (e.g., champignons), heavy cream, onions, garlic, white wine (optional), butter, cooking oil, fresh parsley, salt, black pepper. Keto side: Steamed green beans.
How to make it keto
Absolutely essential: request the schnitzel 'ohne Panade' (without breading/flour). Confirm that the creamy mushroom sauce is not thickened with flour (often it's just reduced cream, which is keto-friendly). Substitute starchy sides (fries, Spätzle, potatoes) with green beans or a side salad.
Say this to the waiter (German)
Das Jägerschnitzel bitte ohne Panade. Ist die Pilzrahmsoße ohne Mehl? Dazu bitte grüne Bohnen oder einen Beilagensalat statt Pommes.
Jägerschnitzel without breading, please. Is the mushroom cream sauce flour-free? I'd like green beans or a side salad instead of fries.
Watch out for
The breading on the schnitzel, flour or starch as thickeners in the mushroom sauce, and all starchy sides (fries, Spätzle, potatoes).
