Picada Colombiana

Picada Colombiana is a traditional dish where a variety of grilled or fried meat and vegetables are served on a large platter. The dish is usually prepared on Sundays for family and friends or at various special occasions and celebrations, but it can also be found served as street food.

Picada Colombiana typically includes papa criolla potatoes, pork, chicken, beef, morcilla blood sausages, longaniza, arepas, guacamole, sweet plantains, chunchullo (fried intestines), and envuelto (corn in husks). It is recommended to season this hearty dish with a squeeze of lime juice, as they usually do in Colombia.
