Pan-Fried Sea Bass
Yes, keto as served. About 5g net carbs per serving, lower than 6 in 10 English dishes.
What it is
Crispy-skinned pan-fried sea bass fillet, typically served with a simple lemon butter sauce and seasonal green vegetables. A lighter yet flavourful option.
Key ingredients
Sea bass fillet (approx. 180-200g), generous butter, lemon juice, olive oil, salt, pepper. Served with steamed or sautéed green vegetables (e.g., broccoli, asparagus, green beans).
Optional tweaks
Ensure no potato, rice, or starchy purée is served as a side. Confirm the sauce is purely butter and lemon, not thickened with flour or containing added sugars. Request extra butter if desired and a generous portion of green vegetables.
Watch out for
Hidden sugars in pre-made sauces or marinades. Any non-keto side dishes (potatoes, rice, sweet glazes on vegetables) must be avoided. Some restaurants might add flour to thicken butter sauces.
