Costela de Carneiro, or lamb ribs, is a flavorful dish popular in Brazilian cuisine and other cultures that embrace hearty, roasted meats. Typically seasoned with garlic, salt, pepper, and occasionally aromatic herbs like rosemary, this dish is often grilled, roasted, or slow-cooked to enhance the tender texture and smoky richness of the lamb. Lamb meat is a good source of high-quality protein and essential nutrients like iron, zinc, and vitamin B12, promoting muscle repair and supporting healthy red blood cell production. However, lamb ribs are also high in saturated fat, which can contribute to elevated cholesterol levels if consumed in excess. Pairing this dish with fiber-rich sides like steamed vegetables or fresh salads can help balance the meal’s nutritional profile. Costela de Carneiro offers a satisfying indulgence rooted in tradition, best enjoyed as part of a mindful and balanced diet.
