Carne Asada Recipe

Grilling Directions

1. 1

   Marinate the Steak

   In a large bowl, combine lime juice, olive oil, minced garlic, chopped cilantro, cumin, chili powder, salt, and black pepper. Add the flank steak to the marinade, ensuring it is well coated. Cover and refrigerate for at least 2 hours, preferably overnight.

2. 2

   Preheat the Grill

   Preheat your grill to medium-high heat. Ensure the grill grates are clean and lightly oiled.

3. 3

   Grill the Steak

   Remove the steak from the marinade and let excess marinade drip off. Place the steak on the grill and cook for about 6-8 minutes per side for medium-rare, or until desired doneness is achieved.

4. 4

   Rest the Steak

   Once cooked, remove the steak from the grill and let it rest for about 5-10 minutes before slicing. This helps retain the juices.

5. 5

   Serve

   Slice the steak against the grain into thin strips. Serve with sliced avocado, red onion, and warm tortillas. Enjoy your Carne Asada!
