How to make it keto
Request no rice, no beans, no tortillas, and no plantains. Ask for extra guacamole or an extra serving of grilled low-carb vegetables instead of starchy sides. Confirm no sugary marinades are used on the chicken.
Watch out for
Sugary chicken marinades. Inadvertent inclusion of starchy vegetables (e.g., potatoes) in the grilled vegetable mix.
