Csirkepaprikás Párolt Zöldséggel
Chicken Paprikash with Steamed Greens (Keto Modified)
Yes, with a tweak: request no nokedli (dumplings). About 9g net carbs per serving.
What it is
Tender chicken pieces simmered in Hungary's iconic creamy, rich paprika and sour cream sauce. Accompanied by steamed low-carb vegetables to make it keto-friendly, replacing traditional dumplings.
Key ingredients
Chicken (thighs/drumsticks), onions, paprika (sweet and hot), sour cream, lard/oil, garlic, salt, pepper. Steamed green beans or broccoli (if available).
How to make it keto
Request no nokedli (dumplings). Ask for plain steamed or sautéed low-carb vegetables. Inquire if flour is used to thicken the sauce (authentic versions rely on onions and sour cream).
Say this to the waiter (Hungarian)
Csirkepaprikást kérek, nokedli nélkül. Helyette párolt zöldséget kérek. A szósz lisztmentes?
Csirkepaprikás, please, no nokedli. Plain steamed low-carb vegetables instead. Is the sauce flour-free?
Watch out for
Flour or starch thickeners in the sauce, high-carb side dishes.
