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.

• 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).

• 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.

LISA'S FAVORITE CARNE ASADA MARINADE

Steps:

• Combine the orange, lemon, and lime juice in a large glass or ceramic bowl along with the garlic, soy sauce, chipotle pepper, chili power, ground cumin, paprika, dried oregano, black pepper, and cilantro. Slowly whisk in the olive oil until marinade is well combined. Remove one cup of the marinade and place in a small bowl, cover with plastic wrap and refrigerate for use after the meat is cooked.
• Place the flank steak between two sheets of heavy plastic (resealable freezer bags work well) on a solid, level surface. Firmly pound the steak with the smooth side of a meat mallet to a thickness of 1/4 inch. After pounding, poke steak all over with a fork. Add the meat to the marinade in the large bowl, cover, and allow to marinate in the refrigerator for 24 hours.
• Preheat an outdoor grill for medium-high heat, and lightly oil the grate.
• Remove the steak from the marinade and grill to desired doneness, about 5 minutes per side for medium rare. Discard used marinade. Remove meat from heat and slice across the grain.
• Pour the one cup of reserved, unused marinade over the hot meat and serve immediately.

EASY CARNE ASADA

Steps:

• Get your flap steak at a mercado (Mexican Market) or Carniceria (Mexican Butcher) if one is available.
• It will also be sold as Carne Asada Ranchera.
• If this isn't available, you may also purchase skirt steak at your local grocery store, but it's not quite the same.
• The flap steak has the texture and fat content to come out'just right'.
• Mix your marinade together in a bowl large enough to hold all plus the meat.
• Place the meat in the marinade, cover and refrigerate for 24 hours.
• Grill the meat on high heat on your grill, until it is brown on both sides.
• Cook to a temperature you prefer.
• For most this is well done, I happen to like it so it is stil juicy.
• Serve with flour or corn tortillas, and the sides you like, such as cheese, onions, hot sauce, etc.
• I recommend fresh flour tortillas (probably at the same mercado you got the meat at), and by fresh, I mean made that day.
• Regular tortillas are ok, but fresh is better.
• If you have a Chevy's or Don Pablos or other restaurant that makes their tortillas fresh for their customers, go buy some.
• It's usually about$2 per dozen, and well worth it.
