Codornices al Horno con Vegetales Keto
Roasted Quails with Keto Vegetables
Yes, keto as served. About 9g net carbs per serving, on the higher side for Uruguayan food, so watch the portion.
What it is
Whole quails, typically marinated with garlic, herbs (rosemary, thyme), and olive oil, then roasted until their skin is crisp and the meat is tender and juicy. Served with a medley of oven-roasted low-carb vegetables.
Key ingredients
Whole quails, olive oil, garlic, rosemary, thyme, salt, black pepper. Accompanied by roasted zucchini, bell peppers, asparagus, and onions.
Optional tweaks
Ensure the quails are not basted with sugary glazes or marinades. Confirm that the roasted vegetables are prepared simply with olive oil and herbs, without any high-carb root vegetables (e.g., potatoes, carrots) or sugary sauces.
Watch out for
Sugary glazes or marinades, high-carb root vegetables in the roasted medley, sauces with added sugar.
