How to make it keto
Crucially, ensure the salad dressing (vinaigrette) is made without sugar. Request extra olive oil for cooking and dressing if desired. Confirm no breading or flour used on the fish.
Watch out for
Small amounts of carbs from lemon zest and herbs. Hidden sugars in pre-made salad dressings, which must be explicitly avoided or requested as a simple oil and vinegar mix.
