About Carne assada
Carne Asada, a staple in Mexican and Latin American cuisine, is a flavorful dish made by marinating thin cuts of beef, typically skirt or flank steak, in a zesty blend of lime juice, garlic, chili powder, cumin, and other spices. The meat is then grilled to perfection, achieving a smoky, charred exterior while remaining tender and juicy inside. Packed with high-quality protein, iron, and essential B vitamins, Carne Asada supports muscle growth and energy production. However, its nutritional profile can vary depending on preparation methods, marinades, and serving size. Opting for leaner cuts of beef and pairing it with high-fiber, nutrient-rich sides like grilled vegetables, beans, or a fresh salad can balance out the meal. While delicious in tacos or burritos, consuming it in moderation and being mindful of added fats and sodium is key to enjoying this iconic dish as part of a healthy lifestyle.
