Ingredients

• 2 Pounds Flank or Skirt Steak
• 1 Onion, diced or sliced
• 4 Cloves Garlic, minced
• 2 Limes or 1 Lemon, juiced
• 1/2 Cup Soy Sauce
• 1/4 Cup White Vinegar
• 1/4 Cup Olive Oil if Grilling, not necessary if pan frying
• 2 Tsp Salt
• 1 Tsp Ground Black Pepper

• 1 Tsp Your Choice of Chili, chipotle, cayenne, or paprika peppers
• 1 Tsp Dried Oregano

• 1 Tsp Dried Chili Flakes

Preparation

Step 1

Mix all ingredients in a shallow pan and allow to marinate for at least an hour.

If you're grilling, cook as usual, allow meat to rest for 15 minutes to redistribute the juices. Then slice into chunks when done.

If pan-frying, cook meat on medium-high heat until seared. Allow meat to rest for 15 minutes before slicing into chunks. Then put meat back into pan with the juices for additional flavor.

Top with salsa, cheese, and jalapenos. Squeeze some extra limes if you wish, or add cilantro and avocado.
Pop a tortilla in the microwave for about 15 seconds to warm it up, add carne asada and toppings.
