Bife à Parmegiana Keto (Filé Grelhado com Molho de Tomate Fresco e Queijo)
Grilled Beef Fillet Parmigiana (Keto, without breading)
Yes, with a tweak: ensure NO breading/empanado on the beef. About 11g net carbs per serving, on the higher side for Brazilian food, so watch the portion.
What it is
A keto-adapted version of the Brazilian classic: a tender grilled beef fillet (e.g., sirloin or filet mignon), generously topped with a rich, fresh tomato sauce and a blanket of melted mozzarella or provolone cheese. Served without any breading or starchy sides.
Key ingredients
Beef fillet (sirloin, filet mignon), olive oil, fresh tomatoes (or unsweetened canned diced tomatoes), garlic, onion, oregano, basil, mozzarella or provolone cheese, salt, black pepper.
How to make it keto
CRITICAL: Ensure NO breading/empanado on the beef. Request the tomato sauce be made fresh without added sugar. Omit any accompanying rice or pasta.
Watch out for
Tomato sauce is the primary carb risk due to natural sugars in tomatoes and potential added sugars in restaurant-prepared sauces. Onions and garlic also contribute carbs.
