How to make it keto
Ensure no sugary marinades are used. Request plain grilled or pan-seared seafood with a lemon-butter sauce. Avoid any starchy or high-carb sides. If vegetables are included on the skewers, confirm they are low-carb and in moderation (e.g., small pieces of zucchini, limited bell pepper).
Watch out for
Any hidden sugars in marinades or sauces. Bell peppers on skewers can add carbs if used in large quantities. Cross-contamination with high-carb items on the grill.
