About Beef carne asada
Beef Carne Asada is a flavorful Mexican dish consisting of marinated and grilled steak, traditionally made with cuts like skirt or flank steak. The marinade typically includes citrus juices, garlic, cilantro, spices, and olive oil, creating a vibrant balance of tangy and savory flavors. Asada, meaning "grilled" in Spanish, highlights the smoky, charred taste achieved by cooking over an open flame or on a hot grill. Rich in protein, iron, and essential amino acids, it can be a satisfying addition to a balanced diet. However, its sodium content can be high due to the marinade and seasoning. Served on its own or paired with tortillas, rice, or fresh vegetables, Carne Asada offers an opportunity for customization to make it healthier. Opting for lean cuts and minimizing added salt or oils can help keep this Mexican classic nutritious and delicious.
