How to make it keto
Explicitly request 'no rice, no beans, and no plantains'. Ask for a simple side salad with oil and vinegar dressing or steamed low-carb vegetables (if available) instead.
Watch out for
Often served with white rice. Some restaurants may add a pinch of sugar to caramelize the onions or to the marinade. Onions themselves contain natural sugars, contributing to total carbs.
