What it is
A lavish platter showcasing a variety of grilled seafood, such as white fish fillets, large shrimp, calamari, and often mussels or octopus. The seafood is seasoned simply with garlic, lime, and herbs, then grilled to perfection, making it naturally keto when served without breading or starchy side dishes.
Key ingredients
White fish fillets (e.g., Corvina), large shrimp, calamari, mussels (optional), garlic, lime juice, olive oil, salt, pepper, fresh parsley. Served with a side of simple green salad or steamed non-starchy vegetables.
Optional tweaks
Confirm no breading on any seafood. Request no rice, potatoes, or plantains. Ask for steamed or grilled non-starchy vegetables (like zucchini or asparagus) as a side.
Watch out for
Breading on seafood (must be avoided); traditional carb-heavy sides; sugary marinades (unlikely for simple grilled seafood).
