Carne Asada

Method

Preparation

  1. 1

    Marinate the Steak

    In a large bowl, combine tequila, lime juice, olive oil, minced garlic, cumin, salt, and black pepper. Add the skirt steak, ensuring it's fully coated. Cover and marinate in the refrigerator for at least 2 hours, preferably overnight.

  2. 2

    Prepare the Vinaigrette

    In a small bowl, mix chopped parsley, cilantro, red wine vinegar, and a pinch of salt. Set aside.

  3. 3

    Cook the Fries

    Preheat the oven to 425°F (220°C). Spread the cut potatoes onto a baking sheet and toss with olive oil, salt, and black pepper. Bake for 30-35 minutes, flipping halfway through, until golden and crispy.

  4. 4

    Grill the Steak

    Preheat the grill to medium-high heat. Remove the steak from the marinade and grill for about 4-5 minutes per side for medium-rare or until desired doneness. Let the steak rest for 5 minutes before slicing against the grain.

  5. 5

    Serve

    Slice the grilled steak and serve it with the parsley cilantro vinaigrette drizzled on top alongside the large cut fries.
