Key ingredients
Goat meat, sour orange, bell peppers, onions, garlic, sofrito, tomato paste, olive oil, goat broth, cilantro, oregano, salt, pepper, low-carb vegetables (e.g., sautéed spinach or cabbage).
How to make it keto
Essential to request *no* potatoes, yuca, yautía, or pumpkin in the stew. Verify no flour or sugar is used in the sauce. Ask for a side of non-starchy vegetables like sautéed green beans or steamed broccoli.
Watch out for
Similar to Pollo Guisado, traditional versions include root vegetables. Tomato paste adds carbs. Potential for hidden sugar or flour thickeners in the sauce. Generous portions of aromatic vegetables (onions, peppers) contribute to carb count.
