Bifes de Atum de Cebolada com Grelos Salteados
Tuna Steaks in Onion Sauce with Sautéed Greens (Keto)
Yes, with a tweak: "Cebolada" dishes are often served with potatoes. About 10g net carbs per serving, on the higher side for Portuguese food, so watch the portion.
What it is

Key ingredients
Fresh tuna steaks, onions, olive oil, garlic, white wine vinegar, bay leaf, grelos (rapini/turnip greens), salt, pepper.
How to make it keto
"Cebolada" dishes are often served with potatoes. This version explicitly substitutes potatoes with sautéed grelos.
Watch out for
