We propose here a counterdiabatic (CD) strategy for fast preparation of a state with long-range topological order by magnetic field tuning of an initial separable state. For concreteness, we consider the ground state of the honeycomb Kitaev model whose long-range topological order together with the anyonic excitations make it an interesting candidate for fault-tolerant universal quantum computation and storage. The required CD perturbation is found to be local, having the form of the off-diagonal exchange interactions reminiscent of trigonal deformations in Kitaev Hamiltonians. We show that the counterdiabatically produced state can have high fidelity and retain numerous desired entanglement properties.
