Keto Breaded Fish (Almond Flour)
Yes, with a tweak: specify breading with almond flour or crushed pork rinds. About 5g net carbs per serving, lower than 8 in 10 Ecuadorian dishes.
What it is
A keto version of classic breaded fish, where fresh fish fillets are coated in a crispy almond flour or pork rind mixture and pan-fried until golden. Served with keto-friendly sides.
Key ingredients
White fish fillets, almond flour or crushed pork rinds, egg, spices (garlic powder, paprika), olive oil or avocado oil for frying, lime wedges.
How to make it keto
Specify breading with almond flour or crushed pork rinds. Request no wheat flour breading. Omit traditional high-carb sides like rice, plantain, or fries. Ask for steamed vegetables or a large salad.
Watch out for
Hidden flour in seasoning blends. Ensure the restaurant explicitly uses a keto breading. Frying oil quality (canola, vegetable oils) is a concern, ask for olive or avocado oil if possible.
