How to make it keto
Request no rice, yuca, potatoes, or other starchy root vegetables. Confirm no sugar is added to the stew, as some Caribbean stews might contain a pinch. Ask for a side of avocado salad, a simple green salad (dressing on the side), or steamed non-starchy vegetables.
Watch out for
Sugary additions to the stew (uncommon for Chivo Guisado but always good to check), quantity of tomato paste, traditional high-carb side dishes.
