Churrasco
Grilled Meats Platter (with Guacamole and Keto Sides)
Yes, with a tweak: explicitly request no rice, no black beans, and no tortillas. About 10g net carbs per serving.
What it is
A platter featuring a generous portion of various grilled meats (typically beef, chicken, and sometimes pork sausage) seasoned simply. It's served with fresh, creamy guacamole and a vibrant tomato salsa called chirmol. To make it keto, traditional high-carb sides like rice, black beans, and tortillas are omitted and replaced with low-carb alternatives.
Key ingredients
Grilled beef (skirt steak, sirloin, or similar cut), grilled chicken (thigh or breast), Guatemalan longaniza (pork sausage), fresh avocados, lime juice, cilantro, white onion, tomatoes, bell peppers, olive oil, salt, pepper, garlic powder, cumin.
How to make it keto
Explicitly request no rice, no black beans, and no tortillas. Ask for extra guacamole and a simple side salad (oil and vinegar only, no sweet dressing) or steamed low-carb vegetables (e.g., green beans, broccoli). Confirm sausages are sugar-free.
Watch out for
Marinades or sausages may contain hidden sugars. Restaurant-made chirmol (tomato salsa) could have added sugar. Cross-contamination from high-carb sides is possible.
