铁板鸡 (Teppanyaki Ji)
Hotplate Chicken (Keto Modified - No Starch, Low Sugar)
Yes, with a tweak: request no starch/thickener in the sauce, minimal to no sugar. About 11g net carbs per serving, on the higher side for Singaporean food, so watch the portion.
What it is
Slices of tender chicken stir-fried with onions, bell peppers, and sometimes mushrooms, served sizzling on a hotplate. The keto modification focuses on a savory sauce free of starch and with minimal added sugar, allowing the natural flavors of the chicken and vegetables to shine.
Key ingredients
Chicken thigh slices, onions, bell peppers (green/red), garlic, ginger, soy sauce, sesame oil, cooking oil (e.g., lard, avocado oil), white pepper, optional small amount of keto sweetener, oyster sauce (low sugar version if available).
How to make it keto
Request no starch/thickener in the sauce, minimal to no sugar. Ensure vegetables like bell peppers and onions are kept in moderate portions if strict on carbs. Avoid any potato or sweet potato sides commonly served with hotplate dishes.
Watch out for
Starchy sauce thickeners, high sugar in generic sauces, large quantities of onions/bell peppers.
