Let’s get started!

HOW TO MAKE CHICKEN EGG FOO YOUNG WITH GRAVY

Alright, the first thing you will need to do is in a large bowl combine the egg, scallions, cabbage, water chestnuts, ground chicken and soy sauce.

If you are not a fan of soy sauce, you could use coconut aminos.

Heat ½ tablespoon of oil in a 4-6 inch skillet over medium heat and add ¼ cup of the mixture to the pan.

Flatten the top like a pancake.

I like to use a non-stick skillet for this recipe to be absolutely sure the egg foo young pancakes do not stick. I also only cook one at a time so they brown evenly.

Cook the pancake until brown. This should take about 3 minutes.

Flip and cook the other side for a couple of minutes more.

Remove from the skillet and set aside on a sheet pan. Place the sheet pan in the oven and set to 250F to keep the pancakes warm.

After every pancake is finished, I place it on the sheet pan so they can stay warm while I finish them all.

Continue with the remaining batter, being sure to stir the mixture before adding to the pan. This makes approximately 8 pancakes.

When all of the pancakes are cooked, add the chicken broth, soy sauce, sweetener, vinegar and xanthan gum to a sauce pan.

Whisk to combine and bring to a boil to thicken. Remove from the heat.

Serve the Egg Foo Young pancakes with the gravy and be repaired to be blown away! Wow, this recipe is over-the-top!

IS TRADITIONAL EGG FOO YOUNG KETO?

Traditionally the egg foo young pancakes are keto because they are made with all keto friendly ingredients. I would avoid egg foo young at a Chinese restaurant, though, because you really never know what ingredients they use. You could talk to the restaurant and ask if they use any flour or cornstarch. The gravy at the Chinese restaurant will probably be made with cornstarch so be aware of that.

It really is best to cook your own keto egg foo young at home!

CAN EGG FOO YOUNG BE FROZEN?

These would freeze well after cooking. let them cool completely and lay them in a single layer on the sheet tray lined with parchment paper. Place the sheet tray in the freezer to flash freeze for 2 hours. Remove them from the freezer and transfer to a freezer safe container. They can remain frozen for up to 2 months. The gravy could also be frozen in a freezer safe container. Just be sure to remove most of the air before freezing.
