Keto Marinated Hot Italian Salami Salad
Try this easy Keto salami recipe for your next side dish, snack, or contribution to a group meal. It’s great for setting out in outdoor settings or leaving alongside other potluck recipes for extended periods of time. As a Keto salad, most of it is made up of your favorite brand of spicy salami and little ciliegine mozzarella bites. The remainder is made up of flavorful Keto ingredients, such as kalamata olives and banana peppers. A slightly spicy Italian-inspired marinade is tossed with the salami salad before you chill it in your refrigerator for serving. However, if you’re in a pinch, you can skip the marination and have your recipe ready to go in just 10 minutes!
Can I Make The Recipe Less Spicy?
It’s easy to make this Keto salami recipe spicier or less spicy with some adjustments. There are a few ingredients to look out for in the recipe. The hot ingredients are salami, banana pepper rings, and red pepper flakes in the marinade. You can use mild-flavored salami or pick an extra-spicy flavor if you like the slow burn. Simply adjust the amounts of peppers and pepper flakes you use to your liking.
Snack Or Meal?
Most people would expect to eat a salad like this as a side dish or snack. However, the Keto diet is a little different. Enjoy the recommended serving size as a side dish, or cut the serving in half for a smaller snack size. The recommended serving size also makes for a great lunch, which you can easily add more to if desired. Eat this easy salami salad as your meal-prepped lunch during weekdays to keep your ketosis!

Recipe Steps

1 h 10 min
Step 1
Chop or dice hard salami and add it to a large mixing bowl. It’s best to choose whole logs or thick-sliced packages of salami to get the right size pieces for the salad. You may choose between mild or spicy salami at your discretion. Include halved kalamata olives, halved grape tomatoes, banana pepper rings, diced onion, and halved balls of mozzarella. Toss the ingredients together and set them aside.Step 2
In a separate bowl, whisk together the marinade. Combine extra virgin olive oil, white wine vinegar, raw lemon juice, grated parmesan, fresh chopped basil, dried oregano, red pepper flakes, and minced garlic. Adjust the seasonings to taste. You can modify the spice level by adjusting the red pepper flakes by including more or less. Pour the marinade over the salad ingredients and toss to combine.Step 3
You may serve immediately, but the salad is best served chilled. It’s recommended that you wrap the salad in plastic wrap and refrigerate it for at least 1 hour. However, the longer you marinate the salad in your refrigerator, the more flavors will develop. Toss the ingredients to redistribute the marinade every time before serving. Keep fresh in your refrigerator for up to 3 days.
