Pollo Guisado con Ensalada (Keto)
Dominican Stewed Chicken with Green Salad (Keto Style)
Yes, with a tweak: explicitly request no potatoes, carrots, corn, or other root vegetables in the stew. About 12g net carbs per serving, on the higher side for Dominican food, so watch the portion.
What it is
Tender chicken pieces stewed in a rich, savory tomato-based sauce with bell peppers, onions, and herbs. Modified to be keto by omitting starchy vegetables and serving with a simple green salad instead of rice or beans.
Key ingredients
Chicken (thighs/legs), tomato paste/sauce, bell peppers, onions, garlic, cilantro, oregano, olive oil, green salad (lettuce, tomato, cucumber).
How to make it keto
Explicitly request no potatoes, carrots, corn, or other root vegetables in the stew. Ask for a side green salad with oil and vinegar dressing, omitting rice, beans, or plantains.
Watch out for
Hidden sugars in tomato paste/sauce, starchy vegetables often included in the stew, sugary salad dressings, and the default high-carb sides.
