Xai a la brasa is a traditional Andorran dish featuring succulent grilled lamb, seasoned with local herbs and spices.

This dish has deep roots in Andorran culture, where lamb is a staple meat, often enjoyed during festive occasions and family gatherings.

To prepare Xai a la brasa, start by marinating the lamb with a mixture of rosemary, garlic, olive oil, salt, and black pepper. Allow the flavors to infuse for at least 30 minutes.

Once marinated, grill the lamb over medium-high heat until it reaches your desired level of doneness, typically around 45 minutes for a medium-rare finish.

For a personalized touch, you can experiment with different herbs or add a splash of lemon juice to the marinade for a zesty kick.

In Andorra, Xai a la brasa is often served with roasted vegetables or a fresh salad, making it a well-rounded and satisfying meal.

While this dish is rich in protein and essential nutrients, it is also relatively high in fat, so it is best enjoyed in moderation as part of a balanced diet.
