Pollo al Ajillo con Vegetales Salteados
Garlic Chicken with Sautéed Vegetables
Yes, with a tweak: ensure no potatoes, rice, or bread. About 8g net carbs per serving.
What it is
Chicken pieces (often boneless thighs or breast) pan-fried or baked with an abundant amount of garlic, olive oil, and herbs, creating a rich and aromatic flavor. Served with a generous portion of sautéed low-carb vegetables like mushrooms, bell peppers, or broccoli.
Key ingredients
Chicken thighs/breast, olive oil, garlic, white wine (optional, small amount), fresh parsley, salt, black pepper. Mushrooms, bell peppers, broccoli.
How to make it keto
Ensure no potatoes, rice, or bread. Ask for sautéed low-carb vegetables instead of starchy sides. Confirm no flour or cornstarch is used to thicken any sauce.
Watch out for
Standard sides like rice or potatoes. Potential for flour/starch in a sauce (unlikely for classic 'al ajillo'). Garlic has some carbs, but usually acceptable.
