Method

Preparation

  1. 1

    Prepare the Meat

    If using carne asada, marinate it with olive oil, minced garlic, lime juice, salt, and pepper for at least 30 minutes. For shrimp, toss with olive oil, minced garlic, salt, and pepper.

  2. 2

    Cook the Meat

    Heat a grill or skillet over medium-high heat. For carne asada, cook for about 5-7 minutes on each side until desired doneness. For shrimp, cook for 2-3 minutes on each side until they turn pink and opaque.

  3. 3

    Prepare Toppings

    Chop the cilantro and onions. Warm the pinto beans in a small pot over low heat.

  4. 4

    Assemble the Wraps

    Lay out the lettuce leaves and fill each with pinto beans, cooked carne asada or shrimp, chopped cilantro, onions, and a spoonful of salsa verde.

  5. 5

    Serve

    Enjoy the wraps fresh and warm. Squeeze additional lime juice on top if desired.
