Pernil Asado con Vegetales Salteados
Slow-Roasted Pork Shoulder with Sautéed Vegetables
Yes, with a tweak: explicitly request no rice, no beans, no plantains, and no starchy root vegetables. About 8g net carbs per serving.
What it is
Succulent slow-roasted pork shoulder, marinated with a potent blend of garlic, oregano, and sour orange. Traditionally served with rice and beans, but modified here with a side of sautéed non-starchy vegetables for a keto meal.
Key ingredients
Pork shoulder, garlic, oregano, sour orange juice, olive oil, bell peppers, onions, zucchini, broccoli (for keto sides).
How to make it keto
Explicitly request no rice, no beans, no plantains, and no starchy root vegetables. Ask for a generous side of sautéed non-starchy vegetables (e.g., broccoli, green beans, spinach, peppers, onions) cooked in oil or butter instead.
Watch out for
Marinades can sometimes contain small amounts of sugar, but usually negligible for pernil. Ensure vegetables are sautéed without added sugar or high-carb sauces.
