Lime Carne Asada Recipe

Preparation Steps

1. 1

   Marinate the Steak

   In a bowl, combine lime juice, minced garlic, cumin, olive oil, salt, and black pepper. Add the flank steak and marinate for at least 1 hour, preferably overnight in the refrigerator.

2. 2

   Cook the Rice

   Prepare the rice according to package instructions. Set aside when done.

3. 3

   Grill the Steak

   Preheat the grill to medium-high heat. Remove the steak from the marinade and grill for about 6-8 minutes per side for medium-rare, or until desired doneness. Let the steak rest for 5 minutes before slicing.

4. 4

   Grill the Onions

   While the steak is resting, grill the sliced onions until caramelized, about 5 minutes.

5. 5

   Assemble the Dish

   On each plate, serve a portion of rice, refried beans, sliced carne asada, grilled onions, pico de gallo, guacamole, and shredded lettuce. Add hot pepper slices as desired.

6. 6

   Serve with Tortillas

   Warm the flour tortillas and serve them on the side for wrapping the carne asada and other toppings.
