About Fillet espetada

Fillet Espetada is a traditional dish originating from Portuguese and Madeira cuisine, renowned for its simplicity and bold flavors. This dish typically features tender beef fillet, cubed and marinated in olive oil, garlic, fresh herbs, and occasionally red wine or lemon juice, offering a delightful infusion of savory and tangy flavors. The meat is skewered and grilled to perfection, often accompanied by vegetables such as bell peppers or onions for added nutrients and color. High in protein and iron, Fillet Espetada is a hearty option for meat lovers. The olive oil and garlic in the marinade provide heart-healthy fats and antioxidants, while the grilling process limits added fats compared to frying. However, it is important to consider portion sizes and balance it with fiber-rich sides, as excessive red meat consumption can raise cholesterol levels if not consumed in moderation.
