Carne Asada Recipe
A delicious Carne Asada recipe made from marinated flank or skirt steak and cooked on the grill. Juicy, tender and a great addition to any Mexican meal! The marinade for carne asada varies greatly from region to region in Latin America and there is no real one authentic marinade. Some marinades are as simple as oil, salt, pepper, garlic and lime juice, and others are a longer list of ingredients and spices. For this carne asada marinade, I leaned towards the latter and tried to get in as much flavor as possible by using some chopped cilantro, olive oil, orange juice, lime juice, white wine vinegar, chili powder, cumin, oregano, garlic, a finely chopped jalapeno and salt and pepper.
Once the marinade is mixed together, simply pour it over the steak in a large baking dish or gallon size zip top bag and refrigerate for 2 to 4 hours.

- Place the steak in a large baking dish or gallon size zip-top bag and pour the marinade on top. Turn the steak a few times until it's completely coated with the marinade and refrigerate for 2 to 4 hours. Do not marinate for longer than 8 hours because the meat will start to break down and get mushy.
