About Steak skirt
Skirt steak is a thin, flavorful cut of beef sourced from the diaphragm muscle of the cow. Popular in Mexican cuisine, it’s a staple in dishes like fajitas and carne asada thanks to its ability to absorb marinades and provide a smoky, rich taste when grilled. Nutritionally, skirt steak is high in protein, essential for muscle repair and growth, and contains important vitamins and minerals like iron, zinc, and B-complex vitamins that support energy production and immune health. However, it is also higher in fat compared to leaner cuts of beef, which contributes to its tender texture and bold flavor. To balance its nutritional profile, pairing skirt steak with fresh vegetables, whole grains, or a lighter marinade can help complement its richness. Enjoy its versatility in cuisine while being mindful of portion and preparation for a healthy indulgence.
