Filé de Peixe Grelhado com Molho de Alcaparras e Brócolis
Grilled Fish Fillet with Caper Sauce and Broccoli
Yes, with a tweak: request 'sem arroz e sem batatas'. About 5g net carbs per serving, lower than 7 in 10 Brazilian dishes.
What it is
A fresh white fish fillet (such as tilapia, saint peter, or linguado) grilled and served with a rich, tangy caper butter sauce. The modification ensures it comes with a keto-friendly side like steamed or sautéed broccoli instead of rice or potatoes.
Key ingredients
White fish fillet, butter, capers, lemon juice, white wine (optional, usually cooks off), olive oil, salt, pepper, broccoli.
How to make it keto
Request 'sem arroz e sem batatas'. Ensure the caper sauce is purely butter-based with no flour thickeners. Specify steamed or sautéed broccoli ('com brócolis cozido no vapor ou refogado') or other keto-friendly green vegetable.
Say this to the waiter (Portuguese)
Por favor, sem arroz e sem batatas. O molho de alcaparras é só com manteiga, sem farinha? O brócolis pode vir cozido no vapor ou refogado?
No rice or potatoes, please. Is the caper sauce butter-based, no flour? Can the broccoli be steamed or sautéed?
Watch out for
Sugary glazes on the fish, flour thickeners in the sauce, default high-carb sides.
