Lomo Salteado de Res (Estilo Keto)
Keto Sautéed Beef Sirloin Strips
Yes, with a tweak: omit french fries and rice entirely. About 13g net carbs per serving, on the higher side for Costa Rican food, so watch the portion.
What it is
Tender strips of beef sirloin stir-fried rapidly with red onions, bell peppers, and tomatoes in a savory sauce. This keto version completely omits the traditional french fries and rice, focusing on the succulent meat and vegetables.
Key ingredients
Beef sirloin strips, red onion, bell peppers (various colors), tomatoes, garlic, cilantro, soy sauce (or Tamari), white vinegar, cooking oil, salt, pepper.
How to make it keto
CRITICAL: Omit french fries and rice entirely. Request soy sauce without added sugar (or specify Tamari if available). Ask for a reduced amount of tomatoes if you are very carb-sensitive.
Watch out for
French fries and rice are standard accompaniments and must be explicitly refused. Tomatoes, onions, and bell peppers contribute carbohydrates. Regular soy sauce often contains significant added sugar.
