Default sherry carb count or substitutions?

I make this chicken dish with a sherry mushroom sauce.

I was planning on making it tonight but I cant seem to find a carb count for sherry. I think its dry sherry and I would only be using a little bit. Is it okay to use the sherry and count it as a regular wine, or is the carb count higher?

Should I just use a regular dry wine instead? Also if I wanted to let the chicken and veggies marinate in a mixture that contains sherry would it have more carbs than if I just made a sauce and cooked it?

Thanks,

MJ

It's OK to use sherry, just make sure that it's dry and not what's called "cooking" sherry which contains a lot of sugar.

Dry Sherry has 0.2 grams per Tablespoon. Quite a deal for a lot of flavour!
