What it is
A refreshing and savory salad featuring a medley of cooked seafood, typically shrimp, conch (lambí), and/or octopus, mixed with finely diced onions, bell peppers, cilantro, and dressed with lime or sour orange juice and olive oil. Naturally low-carb and high-protein.
Key ingredients
Cooked shrimp, conch (lambí), and/or octopus, red onion, bell peppers (various colors), cilantro, lime/sour orange juice, olive oil, salt, pepper.
Optional tweaks
Ensure no sugary dressings or hidden fruit additions (which are uncommon but possible in variations). Usually served as is, without high-carb sides.
Watch out for
Very low carb risk. The main concern would be any hidden sugar in the dressing, which is unlikely for a traditional salpicón.
