Carne Asada Tacos feature thinly sliced, grilled steak marinated in citrus and spices, served on warm corn tortillas with fresh onion, cilantro, and a squeeze of lime. The bright marinade and high-heat grill impart a smoky-char flavor that complements the tender beef. Quick to assemble, they’re ideal for casual gatherings or weeknight meals.

Steps

1. Prepare the marinade: whisk together citrus, oil, garlic, and spices.
2. Marinate the steak: place flank steak in a shallow dish, pour in marinade, and refrigerate at least 15 minutes.
3. Preheat grill or grill pan to high; remove steak from marinade and grill until medium, about 4 minutes per side.
4. Let steak rest 5 minutes, then thinly slice against the grain.
5. Warm tortillas: heat corn tortillas on the grill or in a dry skillet until pliable.
6. Assemble tacos: top each tortilla with sliced steak, onion, cilantro, and salsa; serve with lime wedges.
