How to make it keto
Ensure marinade contains no sugar or high-carb fruit purees (like plum or pomegranate). Ask for extra oil or butter on the side. Hazelnuts should be a light garnish, not a coating.
Watch out for
Hidden sugars in marinades (e.g., tkemali or pomegranate juice), potential for excessive hazelnut coating adding carbs.
