Carne cocida en limón is a traditional dish originating from Chiapas. Often served in cantinas and pulquerias, this tasty snack consists of ground meat marinated in lime juice. It's usually prepared with a combination of fresh lime juice, ground beef (often sirloin), chopped tomatoes, chopped white onions, serrano chili peppers, and salt.

The lime juice is mixed into the ground meat, and it's then placed in the fridge to marinated for at least four hours. The rest of the ingredients are then added, and the meat mixture is refrigerated for two more hours. Once done, carne cocida en limón is typically served with fried or toasted tortillas.
