Request no bread, no rice, and no potatoes. Ask for a side of green salad with an oil and vinegar dressing, or grilled/steamed vegetables such as zucchini, eggplant, or broccoli.
Watch out for
Carb-heavy sides (fries, rice, potatoes, bread) are the primary risk. Occasionally, marinades might contain sugar, so ask for plain seasoning if concerned.
