Thinly Sliced Steak with Sautéed Onions and Keto Sides
Yes, with a tweak: request no rice, no beans, no plantains. About 8g net carbs per serving.
What it is
Thinly sliced beef steak marinated (often with garlic and sour orange/lime) and then quickly pan-fried with generous amounts of sliced onions until tender and caramelized. The onions release their natural sweetness and create a delicious savory sauce. Modified to omit traditional rice and beans, instead served with a simple green salad or sliced avocado.
Key ingredients
Thin beef steak (e.g., palomilla cut), white onion, olive oil, garlic, sour orange juice (or lime/vinegar), salt, pepper, avocado, mixed green salad.
How to make it keto
Request no rice, no beans, no plantains. Confirm no sugar is added to the onions for caramelization (rely on natural sugars). Serve with a side of avocado or a green salad with oil and vinegar.
Watch out for
Onions contain natural sugars; large quantities can add up. Some recipes might add a pinch of sugar for caramelization or to the marinade.
