How to make it keto
Explicitly request no rice, no beans, no tortillas, no fried plantains. Ensure marinade is sugar-free (ask if possible). Request extra guacamole or a simple green salad as a side instead.
Watch out for
Marinades can contain sugar. Traditional side dishes (rice, beans, tortillas, plantains) are high-carb. Chirmol can sometimes contain small amounts of sugar or starchy thickeners.
