Pescado Entero Frito (sin panizar - Whole Fried Fish without Breading)
Whole Fried Fish (No Breading) with Keto Sides
Yes, with a tweak: emphatically request 'sin panizar' (without breading/flour). About 9g net carbs per serving, on the higher side for Dominican food, so watch the portion.
What it is
A whole fresh fish (often Red Snapper) seasoned simply with salt, pepper, and garlic, then deep-fried until crispy outside and moist inside. The keto modification ensures no flour or breading is used, allowing the natural flavor of the fish to shine. Served with keto-friendly sides like avocado or a simple green salad, instead of rice or plantains.
Key ingredients
Whole fresh fish (e.g., Red Snapper), salt, pepper, garlic powder, onion powder, lime wedges, cooking oil (for frying), avocado, mixed green salad (lettuce, cucumber, tomato), olive oil, white vinegar.
How to make it keto
CRITICAL: Emphatically request 'sin panizar' (without breading/flour). Request no starchy sides (rice, plantains, fries, yuca). Opt for avocado or a green salad with oil and vinegar dressing.
Watch out for
Breading/flour (major risk if not specified 'sin panizar'). Some restaurants may use sugary sauces or marinades.
