How to make it keto
Explicitly request no starchy sides (like rice, yuca, potatoes, or plantains). Confirm only olive oil or butter is used for cooking, avoiding sugary marinades. Ensure vegetables are cooked plain or with healthy fats, not with sugar or high-carb sauces.
Watch out for
Sugary marinades or glazes on the fish. Vegetables might be sautéed with hidden sugars or high-carb sauces. Standard sides are high-carb.
