Pescado Entero Frito con Ensalada y Aguacate
Whole Fried Fish with Green Salad and Avocado
Yes, with a tweak: confirm no flour or cornstarch breading on the fish. About 6g net carbs per serving, lower than 5 in 10 Dominican dishes.
What it is
A whole fish (commonly Red Snapper, 'Chillo') seasoned simply with garlic, oregano, and lime, then deep-fried until the skin is crispy and the flesh is tender. Served with a refreshing green salad and sliced avocado, without any high-carb accompaniments.
Key ingredients
Whole fish (e.g., Red Snapper), garlic, oregano, lime juice, salt, black pepper, frying oil, lettuce, tomato, cucumber, avocado.
How to make it keto
Crucially, confirm no flour or cornstarch breading on the fish. Request omission of all starchy sides (rice, plantains, yuca). Ask for a simple oil-and-vinegar dressing for the salad.
Watch out for
Primary risk is breading (flour/cornstarch) on the fish; must be explicitly omitted. Small carb contributions from salad vegetables.
