Carne Asada is a flavorful and aromatic dish that hails from Mexican cuisine, primarily featuring marinated beef, often skirt or flank steak. The meat is seasoned with a blend of garlic, lime juice, and cilantro, then grilled to perfection, giving it a smoky, charred crust. Typically served with warm tortillas, fresh salsa, and avocado, it offers a satisfying balance of protein and healthy fats. While delicious, it's important to enjoy Carne Asada in moderation, as the marinade can be high in sodium. Delight in this iconic dish that brings vibrant flavors and culinary tradition to your table!
