Unbreaded Chicken Kyiv with Garlic Butter
Yes, with a tweak: request NO BREADING (no flour, breadcrumbs, etc.). About 2g net carbs per serving, lower than 9 in 10 Ukrainian dishes.
What it is
A keto-adapted version of the iconic Chicken Kyiv, featuring a tender chicken breast pounded flat, rolled around a generous filling of chilled garlic herb butter, and then pan-fried or baked to perfection without any breading.
Key ingredients
Chicken breast, unsalted butter, fresh garlic, fresh dill or parsley, salt, black pepper, cooking oil (e.g., sunflower or olive oil).
How to make it keto
Crucially, request NO BREADING (no flour, breadcrumbs, etc.). Confirm it will be prepared by pan-frying or baking plain. Request keto-friendly sides such as steamed broccoli, green beans, or a simple green salad with oil and vinegar.
Watch out for
Traditional flour and breadcrumb coating, often served with high-carb sides like mashed potatoes.
