Grilled Sea Bass with Steamed Vegetables
Yes, with a tweak: request no boiled potatoes or rice. About 5g net carbs per serving, lower than 6 in 10 Portuguese dishes.
What it is
A pristine whole or filleted sea bass, lightly seasoned with salt and pepper, then expertly grilled to highlight its delicate flavor and flaky texture. To accommodate a keto diet, this dish is served with a side of steamed or lightly sautéed low-carb vegetables (such as broccoli, green beans, or asparagus), instead of the customary boiled potatoes.
Key ingredients
Whole sea bass (or fillet), olive oil, coarse salt, black pepper, lemon wedge, selection of steamed green vegetables (e.g., broccoli florets, green beans, asparagus spears).
How to make it keto
Request no boiled potatoes or rice. Ask for steamed or grilled green vegetables (broccoli, green beans, asparagus) as a side. Confirm no glazes or marinades on the fish that might contain sugar.
Watch out for
Marinades or glazes on the fish. Overly generous portions of vegetables that might include higher-carb options like carrots or corn without prior confirmation.
