What it is
A classic Portuguese steak dish featuring a pan-fried beef steak (often thinly cut), topped with a fried egg and a savory garlic-wine sauce. This keto-modified version replaces the traditional fried potatoes with a fresh, simple green salad.
Key ingredients
Beef steak (sirloin or rump), olive oil/butter, garlic, white wine (for sauce), bay leaf, fried egg, salt, pepper, mixed green salad, olive oil, vinegar.
How to make it keto
Absolutely no fries. Request a side green salad with olive oil and vinegar. Confirm the sauce is not thickened with flour and has minimal wine reduction to control carbs.
Watch out for
Wine in the sauce. Potential for flour/starch used as a thickener in the sauce if not specified. Hidden sugars in some restaurant-prepared sauces.
