Thick slices of succulent top sirloin cap (picanha) seared or grilled to retain its juicy fat cap, served with a generous portion of sautéed or grilled low-carb vegetables instead of traditional rice and fries.
Key ingredients
Picanha beef, olive oil/butter, garlic, onions, bell peppers, zucchini, broccoli (or other low-carb vegetables), salt, black pepper.
How to make it keto
Explicitly request no rice, no farofa, no fries, and no sugary sauces or glazes. Ask for a side of steamed or grilled keto-friendly vegetables (e.g., broccoli, asparagus, zucchini, green beans) cooked simply with butter or olive oil. Confirm no high-carb vegetables like carrots or corn are included in the mix.
Say this to the waiter (Portuguese)
Para a Picanha na Chapa, sem arroz, farofa, batatas fritas ou molhos doces. Queria legumes cozidos ou grelhados, sem cenoura ou milho, por favor.
For the Picanha na Chapa, no rice, farofa, fries, or sugary sauces. I'd like steamed or grilled low-carb vegetables, simply cooked. Please, no carrots or corn.
Watch out for
Hidden sugars in vegetable glazes or marinades, high-carb vegetables (carrots, corn, potatoes) in mixed vegetable sides, cross-contamination if cooked on the same griddle as carb-heavy items.
