Carne Asada Guatemalteca con Verduras Salteadas
Guatemalan Grilled Steak with Sautéed Vegetables
Yes, with a tweak: request no rice, no beans, and no tortillas. About 12g net carbs per serving, on the higher side for Guatemalan food, so watch the portion.
What it is
Flavorful grilled steak (usually flank or sirloin) marinated in lime, garlic, and spices, served with a generous portion of sautéed non-starchy vegetables. Traditionally accompanied by rice, beans, and tortillas, which are omitted for keto.
Key ingredients
Beef steak (flank or sirloin), olive oil, lime juice, garlic, onion, bell peppers, zucchini, broccoli, salt, black pepper, cilantro.
How to make it keto
Request no rice, no beans, and no tortillas. Ask for extra non-starchy vegetables (e.g., broccoli, zucchini, green beans, bell peppers) sautéed in butter or olive oil instead of starchy sides.
Watch out for
Marinades can sometimes contain small amounts of sugar or fruit juice. Ensure no sugary sauces or glazes are used. The primary carb risk is from traditional starchy sides, which must be explicitly omitted.
