How to make it keto
Confirm no sugar in marinade. Request to be served with a side of mixed greens or grilled low-carb vegetables (like bell peppers or zucchini) instead of rice, couscous, or bread.
Say this to the waiter (Arabic)
للبروشيت، من فضلك بدون بصل أو فلفل على السيخ. قدمها بدون أرز، بطاطس مقلية، أو خبز. وأرغب في سلطة بسيطة بالخيار والطماطم مع زيت الزيتون والليمون.
Brochettes, please no onions or bell peppers on the skewer. Serve without rice, fries, or bread. I'd like a simple cucumber and tomato salad with olive oil and lemon.
Watch out for
Sugary marinades, often used for flavor and caramelization. High-carb side dishes are standard.
