CARNE ASADA STEAK BOWLS

Steps:

• Heat 1 tsp oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Season the steak with salt and pepper on both sides.
• Cook for about 5-7 minutes on each side or until it's done to your liking. Place steak on a cutting board and allow it to sit for 5 minutes. Using a very sharp knife, slice it across the grain.
• To the same pan in which we cooked the steak add 1 Tbsp of oil. Add cooked brown rice and seasonings, and stir fry for about 3-4 minutes. Season with salt and pepper to your taste and set aside.
• In a medium bowl, add beans, tomatoes, onion, and avocado. Drizzle with remaining oil, lime juice and sprinkle with salt and pepper.
• Divide lettuce among 2 bowls and top with bean salad, steak, and fried rice. Garnish with lime wedges and fresh cilantro and enjoy!

CARNE ASADA

Steps:

• Place the skirt steak in a large glass bowl or resealable plastic bag.
• To make the marinade, add the cilantro, olive oil, orange juice, lime juice, honey, oregano, garlic and serrano chile to a blender. Season with a small pinch of salt and pepper. Blend for 35 to 40 seconds to combine.
• Pour the marinade all over the steak, moving it around to make sure everything is covered. Cover or seal and transfer to the refrigerator and allow to marinate for at least 1 hour, but no more than 6 (too long in the marinade will cause the steak to begin breaking down).
• Preheat a grill or grill pan over medium-high heat.
• When ready, remove the steak from the marinade, letting the excess drip off. Sprinkle generously with salt and pepper and grill about 4 minutes per side for medium.
• Remove to a cutting board and allow to rest for 5 to 7 minutes. Slice the steak against the grain and serve with the lime wedges.

CARNE ASADA (GRILLED STEAK)

Steps:

• In a large stainless steel or glass bowl, mix the meat with the onions, orange juice, salt, pepper and oil. Cover and marinate at least 1 hour, or better yet overnight.
• Start a good fire in your grill, preferably with mesquite charcoal. Remove the meat from its marinade, pat dry and grill over hot flame until the first side is well browned, from 5-7 minutes.
• Turn the meat over and grill on the other side until cooked to desired doneness. Remove to a clean platter.
• Slice meat into thin strips across the grain and serve as a topping for tostadas or as a filling for tacos or burritos.
• VARIATIONS:.
• Add some lime juice along with the orange juice in the marinade. Or use sour orange juice (naranja agria) if you can find it.
• Other possible marinade additions include ground cumin, chili powder and chopped cilantro. Everyone has their own favorites.

CARNE ASADA

Steps:

• Lay the skirt steak in a large nonreactive bowl or baking dish.
• Combine the oil, soy sauce, garlic, lime juice, cilantro, jalapeno, red wine vinegar, cumin, sugar and 1 tablespoon each salt and pepper. Pour the marinade over the steak, making it's well coated. Cover and refrigerate for 4 to 6 hours, or overnight.
• Preheat a grill or cast-iron skillet to high heat. Remove the steak from the marinade, sprinkle both sides with salt and pepper, and place it on the grill. (If cooking indoors, remove excess marinade, as the garlic may burn and smoke).
• Grill the steak for just a few minutes per side, depending on thickness, until it is cooked to your preference. You may need to work in batches.
• Transfer the steak to a cutting board and let rest for 5 minutes. Slice the steak thinly against the grain on a diagonal and serve.
