Peruvian Beef Kebabs, known as "Anticuchos," are a flavorful staple of Peruvian cuisine, showcasing pre-Columbian and Spanish influences. These skewers typically feature marinated beef heart or steak, seasoned with vinegar, garlic, cumin, aji panca (Peruvian red pepper), and other bold spices. The marinade delivers robust flavor while tenderizing the meat, which is then grilled to perfection for a smoky, succulent bite. Often served with boiled potatoes, corn, or a fiery aji sauce, these kebabs offer a balanced combination of protein and nutrients. Beef heart, a common traditional choice, is rich in B vitamins, iron, and coenzyme Q10, promoting cardiovascular health. However, sodium in the marinade and saturated fats from beef may be considerations for certain diets. Enjoyed as street food or party fare, Peruvian Beef Kebabs are a delicious intersection of nutrition, tradition, and vibrant cultural heritage.
