PROS

Thai Ribbons are a flavorful, protein-packed meal, perfect for a quick and easy dinner.
The marinated steak is tender and juicy, and the ginger-garlic mixture adds a bold, spicy kick.

CONS

Grilling steak can release harmful chemicals called heterocyclic amines (HCAs), which have been linked to cancer.
To avoid excessive HCAs, grill the steak until just cooked through, not charred.

HEALTH & BENEFITS

Beef is a rich source of protein, essential for building and repairing tissues in the body. Flank steak is a lean cut of beef, making it a healthier option than fattier cuts. Ginger has anti-inflammatory properties that may help reduce pain and swelling, and garlic has been shown to help support cardiovascular health and boost the immune system.
