About Bistec

Bistec, derived from the Spanish pronunciation of "beef steak," is a dish commonly found in Latin American and Spanish cuisine. Typically made from thinly sliced beef, it is seasoned with ingredients such as garlic, salt, pepper, and sometimes citrus marinade for added flavor. Bistec is often pan-fried or grilled and served alongside rice, beans, or vegetables. As a protein-rich food, it provides essential nutrients like iron, zinc, and vitamin B12, making it beneficial for muscle development and energy production. However, its healthiness can vary depending on preparation; frying in excessive oil or adding high-fat accompaniments may introduce excess calories and saturated fats. Opting for lean cuts and pairing it with wholesome sides can make Bistec a nutritious choice for a balanced diet. Its rich flavors and versatility have made it a staple of home-cooked meals across diverse cultures.
