Description

Lamb steaks are tender and juicy cuts obtained from lamb meat, particularly from delicate parts such as the loin or ribs. This ingredient is highly valued in gastronomy for its mild flavor and delicate texture, which adapts perfectly to quick cooking techniques like grilling, broiling, or pan-frying.

Lamb is an animal whose rearing has a long tradition in Mediterranean regions, as well as in Middle Eastern and Western European countries. In cooking, its steaks are valued for their versatility in preparing both simple and sophisticated dishes, from stews to grilled recipes.

Regarding their nutritional properties, lamb steaks are an excellent source of high-biological-value proteins, iron, zinc, and B vitamins, especially B12. Additionally, they contain healthy fats that provide energy in a balanced way.

Depending on the country or region in Latin America, lamb steaks may be known by different names, such as costeletas, chuletas, or simply lamb cut. However, the term "lamb steaks" is widely recognized in the culinary field and facilitates the identification of this specific cut for recipe preparation.
