Easy Carne Asada
"An easy grilled flank steak is transformed into juicy, tender, and flavorful Carne Asada — with just 5 minutes of prep work! Thanks to a simple Latin American-inspired steak marinade, the charred meat is perfect for salads, tacos, burritos and quesadillas. This is one family-friendly entree that you can enjoy all summer long! If you’ve tasted carne asada at your favorite Mexican restaurant, then you probably enjoyed grilled beef that was marinated in a zesty, citrus-based sauce with plenty of Latin American seasoning like cumin, cilantro, and of course, garlic! I put my own (very easy) twist on a carne asada steak marinade at home, and let me just tell you — it was a BIG hit! After all, I live in a house full of 4 boys — and they’ve never met a taco or a steak that they didn’t love. This is basically the best of both worlds!"
