GF Carne Asada Tacos

1. 1

   Prepare marinade

   In a bowl, whisk together orange juice, lime juice, olive oil, gluten-free tamari, minced garlic, jalapeño, orange zest, ground cumin, chili powder, paprika, oregano, salt, and pepper to make the marinade.

2. 2

   Marinate steak

   Pat the flank steak dry. Place the steak in a large zip-top bag and pour the marinade over. Seal and refrigerate for 2–4 hours, turning once or twice. Remove steak from marinade and pat dry before cooking.

3. 3

   Preheat cooking surface

   Preheat a grill or heavy skillet over high heat until hot and slightly smoky.

4. 4

   Cook the carne asada

   Grill or sear the steak 4–6 minutes per side, until a desired doneness (about 130–135°F/54–57°C for medium-rare). Adjust time for thickness. Let rest briefly if needed.

5. 5

   Rest and slice

   Transfer the steak to a cutting board and let it rest 5–10 minutes. Slice thinly against the grain.

6. 6

   Warm tortillas

   Warm gluten-free corn tortillas on the grill or in a dry skillet for about 20–30 seconds per side until pliable.

7. 7

   Assemble tacos

   Place steak slices into each tortilla. Top with onion, cilantro, radishes (optional), and salsa. Finish with a squeeze of lime juice from the wedges.

8. 8

   Serve

   Serve immediately with extra lime wedges on the side and extra salsa if desired.
