Keto friendliness
Chilean cuisine can be adapted for keto by focusing on grilled meats and seafood, but requires careful navigation due to prevalent starches.
Top ingredients
Excellent traditional keto ingredients include beef, chicken, pork, various fish and shellfish, avocado, olive oil, and fresh tomato, onion, and bell peppers.
Danger zones
Potatoes, rice, corn (choclo), beans (porotos), lentils, and bread (marraqueta, hallulla, sopaipillas) are ubiquitous and must be explicitly avoided.
Best for
This cuisine is best for adaptable keto dieters who are comfortable ordering simple grilled proteins and asking for specific low-carb side substitutions like salads.
