Key ingredients
Shrimp, butter, garlic, green peppers, tomatoes (minimal), spices (paprika, black pepper), sometimes a small amount of kaşar cheese melted on top.
Optional tweaks
Ensure no added flour or starchy thickeners. Confirm that the tomato content is not excessive, or ask for minimal tomato if strictly limiting carbs.

Small amounts of tomato and green pepper can add up. Some recipes might use a tiny bit of flour for thickening, but it's generally not traditional for this dish. Often served with bread for dipping, which must be avoided.
