The Best Grilled Carne Asada Recipe Ever Food

CARNE ASADA RECIPE

Steps:

• To a small plastic bag (or sealable container), add Spice Mix and whisk to combine. Set aside.
• Add Marinade Ingredients to a large freezer bag and whisk to combine. Add 3 tablespoons Spice Mix to Marinade and whisk to combine. Add steak and seal bag, removing excess air. Marinate in the refrigerator 4-12 hours.
• When ready to grill, mix remaining Spice Mix with 2 tablespoons olive oil to create a Spice Rub.
• Discard marinade and pat steaks dry with paper towel (just so steak is not wet, not to remove marinade/spices). Rub steak evenly all over with Spice Rub and let rest at room temperature for 30-60 minutes.
• Grease and preheat outdoor grill to medium-high heat. Grill steak for 5-6 minutes per side, or until an internal thermometer reads 130-135 degrees F for medium rare or around 140 degrees for medium. Grill time will vary depending on thickness of your steak and desired level of doneness.. *If you like your steaks rare then use HIGH heat so you can get the charred outside in less time.
• Remove steak and let rest 10 minutes before thinly slicing against the grain on a diagonal.

THE BEST CARNE ASADA I HAVE EVER HAD

Steps:

• I wash the meat and dry it carefully, then in a bowl combine all ingredients. Mix carefully with your hands to make sure all of the meat is thoroughly coated.
• Refrigerate the meat all night or at least for 4 hours to get the best flavor. Then grill the meat on a medium low grill.
• I always put the cilantro and onion slices on top of the meat while it is grilling to give it extra flavor and then serve the onions and cilantros with the meat.
• I always enjoy a fresh margarita or two while they are cooking and while I am eating! You can also squirt a little lime juice on the meat while it is cooking.
