Carne Guisada con Ensalada (Sin Arroz ni Habichuelas)
Dominican Stewed Beef with Salad (No Rice or Beans)
Yes, with a tweak: request no rice and no beans. About 11g net carbs per serving, on the higher side for Dominican food, so watch the portion.
What it is
Tender beef stewed in a rich, savory tomato-based sauce with bell peppers, onions, garlic, and fresh herbs. Accompanied by a fresh green salad.
Key ingredients
Beef (stew cuts), tomato paste/sauce, bell peppers, onions, garlic, oregano, cilantro, cooking oil, salt, pepper. Salad: lettuce, tomato, onion, oil/vinegar dressing.
How to make it keto
Crucially, request no rice and no beans. Ask if sugar is added to the stew; if so, ask to omit or minimize. Choose a simple oil & vinegar dressing for the salad.
Watch out for
Always served with rice and beans. Tomato paste contains carbs, and chefs may add a pinch of sugar to balance acidity or enhance flavor. Starchy thickeners are a minor risk.
