Carne de Res Guisada con Aguacate
Stewed Beef with Avocado (No Rice or Beans)
Yes, with a tweak: request no rice, beans, or any root vegetables (potatoes, yuca) in the stew or as sides. About 14g net carbs per serving, on the higher side for Dominican food, so watch the portion.
What it is
Tender chunks of beef (typically chuck or flank steak) braised until fork-tender in a deeply flavorful sauce with bell peppers, onions, garlic, tomatoes, and traditional Dominican spices. Accompanied by a large portion of sliced fresh avocado.
Key ingredients
Beef (chuck/flank), olive oil, sofrito (onions, bell peppers, garlic, cilantro, tomatoes), beef broth, oregano, salt, black pepper. Side: Sliced avocado.
How to make it keto
Request no rice, beans, or any root vegetables (potatoes, yuca) in the stew or as sides.
Watch out for
Hidden sugars in the tomato-based sauce/sofrito. Root vegetables are a common addition to guisados. Large quantities of onions in sofrito contribute to carb count.
