Unpanierte Jägerschnitzel mit Pilzrahmsoße und Brokkoli
Unbreaded Jägerschnitzel (Mushroom Hunter's Schnitzel) with Cream Sauce and Broccoli
Yes, with a tweak: request the schnitzel 'natur' (unbreaded). About 11g net carbs per serving, on the higher side for German food, so watch the portion.
What it is
An unbreaded cutlet of pork or veal (often pork in Germany) pan-fried and served with a rich, creamy mushroom sauce. The traditional carbohydrate side (fries, Spätzle) is replaced with steamed broccoli.
Key ingredients
Pork/veal cutlet, mushrooms (e.g., champignons), heavy cream, beef broth, butter, onion, garlic, parsley, salt, pepper, broccoli.
How to make it keto
Crucially, request the schnitzel 'natur' (unbreaded). Confirm the mushroom cream sauce is not thickened with flour or starches and contains no added sugar. Substitute traditional sides with steamed broccoli or other low-carb vegetables.
Say this to the waiter (German)
Ich hätte gerne das Jägerschnitzel unpaniert (natur). Ist die Pilzrahmsoße ohne Mehl und Zucker? Kann ich gedünsteten Brokkoli als Beilage bekommen?
