Carne Asada Recipe

Carne Asada Directions

1. 1

   Marinate the Steak

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

2. 2

   Grill the Onions

   Heat a grill or grill pan over medium-high heat. Add the sliced onion and grill until tender and slightly charred, about 5-7 minutes. Remove and set aside.

3. 3

   Cook the Steak

   Preheat the grill to high heat. Remove the steak from the marinade and grill for about 5-7 minutes on each side, or until it reaches your desired level of doneness. Let the steak rest for about 5 minutes before slicing it thinly against the grain.

4. 4

   Prepare the Plates

   On each plate, serve a portion of grilled steak topped with grilled onions. Add a side of cooked rice, beans, guacamole, and pico de gallo. Warm the tortillas on the grill or stovetop and serve alongside.
