Arrachera Carne Asada Recipe

Cooking Instructions

1. 1

   Marinating the Steak

   In a bowl, mix olive oil, garlic powder, cumin, salt, black pepper, and lime juice. Rub this mixture onto the arrachera steak and let it marinate for at least 30 minutes.

2. 2

   Cooking the Rice

   Rinse the rice under cold water. In a pot, combine the rice with 2 cups of water and a pinch of salt. Bring to a boil, then reduce heat to low and cover. Cook for about 18 minutes or until water is absorbed and rice is fluffy.

3. 3

   Grilling the Steak

   Preheat the grill to medium-high heat. Place the marinated steak on the grill and cook for about 5-7 minutes on each side for medium-rare, or to your desired doneness. Remove from the grill and let rest for 5 minutes before slicing.

4. 4

   Heating the Refried Beans

   In a small pot, heat the refried beans over low heat until warmed through, stirring occasionally.

5. 5

   Serving

   Serve the grilled arrachera sliced alongside rice, refried beans, and warm corn tortillas. Add your choice of toppings such as salsa, avocado, or cilantro.
