Al Pastor is a delicious Mexican dish that features marinated pork, traditionally cooked on a vertical spit, similar to shawarma. Originating from the influence of Lebanese immigrants, this savory treat is infused with a blend of spices, including achiote and pineapple, giving it a unique sweet and tangy flavor. Typically served in tacos, it's accompanied by onions, cilantro, and a squeeze of lime. While the pork provides protein, the dish can be high in calories and fat, depending on the preparation. However, when enjoyed in moderation, Al Pastor offers a flavorful and satisfying culinary experience that highlights the rich fusion of cultures in Mexican cuisine.
