Grilled Carne Asada Recipe

  • Recipe Submitted by on

Category: Dinner Party, Healthy Recipes

 Ingredients List

  • 1 flank steak (about 2 lbs)
  • the juice of 2 limes
  • 2 cloves of garlic, chopped
  • 1/4 onion, chopped
  • 1/4 cup fresh cilantro, chopped
  • 2 tablespoons white vinegar
  • 3 tablespoons olive oil
  • 1 teaspoon cumin
  • salt and pepper
  • vegetable oil for grilling

 Directions

Preheat grill. Combine all ingredients, except steak, in a large bowl. Mix well. Add steak. Let it marinate for 1 - 3 hours. Letting it marinate for too long will make the meat "soggy" because the citrus and vinegar will start to cook the meat.

Brush grill grates with vegetable, or another high heat oil. Grill until you get a good sear on each side. You don't want to cook more than medium, or it will become dry. Make sure to let the steak rest for at least half of it's cooking time. Then slice perpendicular to grain of meat before serving.
