How to make it keto
Ensure no sugary marinades are used. Explicitly request 'sin arroz, sin habichuelas, sin plátanos' (no rice, no beans, no plantains). Ask for only low-carb vegetables, specifying 'sin papas, sin zanahorias, sin maíz' (no potatoes, no carrots, no corn).
Watch out for
Sugary marinades, high-carb vegetables (e.g., carrots, peas, corn) in mixed vegetable sides, sauces with sugar or thickeners.
