How to make it keto
Request no rice, no beans, no tortillas, no plantains. Ask for grilled steak and onions, and a generous side of sliced avocado. Confirm marinade doesn't contain sugar. Chirmol (tomato salsa) is generally fine if no sugar is added.
Watch out for
Marinades can contain sugar. Traditional sides are high carb and must be omitted. Chirmol could have sugar.
