About Grilled alambres

Grilled Alambres are a flavorful Mexican dish featuring skewered and grilled ingredients, typically including marinated beef, chicken, or pork, paired with chopped bell peppers, onions, and sometimes bacon or cheese. Originating from Mexico's street food tradition, alambres are vibrant in taste and versatile in preparation. The dish is often seasoned with spices like garlic, chili powder, and cumin, offering a robust smokiness that pairs well with fresh lime juice or salsa. Nutritionally, Grilled Alambres can be a good source of protein and essential vitamins from the vegetables. Grilling keeps the fat content lower compared to frying, making it a healthier option when prepared with lean cuts of meat and minimal oil. However, the addition of bacon or cheese can increase saturated fat and calorie content. For a nutritious balance, consider combining lean meats and extra vegetables while moderating high-calorie extras.
