Ingredients
AC0 COMBO ASADA - INGREDIENTS
Directions
1. Marinate and rest steak
In a bowl, whisk together fresh lime juice, orange juice, 2 tablespoons olive oil, minced garlic, ground cumin, chili powder, smoked paprika, 1/2 cup chopped cilantro, salt, black pepper, and the jalapeño. Place the skirt steak in a zip-top bag or shallow dish and pour the marinade over. Seal and refrigerate for 60 minutes (or up to 4 hours) to tenderize and flavor the meat.
2. Prepare pico de gallo
In a bowl, combine diced tomatoes, white onion, jalapeño, and chopped cilantro. Stir in lime juice and salt. Let stand 10 minutes for flavors to meld.
3. Make guacamole
Scoop out avocados and mash to desired texture. Stir in lime juice, red onion, cilantro, jalapeño, and salt. Adjust seasoning to taste.
4. Cook rice
Rinse the rice. In a pot, combine 1 cup rice, 2 cups water, 1 tablespoon olive oil, and 1/2 teaspoon salt. Bring to a boil, reduce heat to low, cover, and simmer 15-18 minutes until tender. Fluff with a fork when done.
5. Grill carne asada
Preheat grill to high. Remove steak from marinade and pat dry. Grill 4-6 minutes per side for medium-rare, or longer for desired doneness. Let rest 5-10 minutes, then slice thinly against the grain.
6. Warm tortillas
Warm tortillas on the grill or in a skillet for 15-20 seconds per side until pliable.
7. Assemble and serve
Serve slices of carne asada with warm rice, pico de gallo, and guacamole. Offer warm tortillas on the side for tacos.
