BEST EVER CARNE ASADA MARINADE



Best Ever Carne Asada Marinade image

This traditional Mexican carne asada marinade recipe will marinade 5 or 6 pounds of meat and can be easily halved or doubled. I've tried many carne asada recipes through the years, and this one outshines them all. The flavors are the most flavorful and authentic and the meat is pull-apart tender. I suggest marinating overnight for the best results. Muy delicioso!

Number Of Ingredients 14

¾ cup orange juice
½ cup lemon juice
⅓ cup lime juice
4 cloves garlic, minced
½ cup soy sauce
1 teaspoon finely chopped canned chipotle pepper
1 tablespoon chili powder

Firmly pound the steak with the smooth side of a meat mallet to a thickness of 1/4 inch. After pounding, poke steak all over with a fork. Add the meat to the marinade in the large bowl, cover, and allow to marinate in the refrigerator for 24 hours.

  • Pour the one cup of reserved, unused marinade over the hot meat and serve immediately.

CITRUS CARNE ASADA MARINADE



Citrus Carne Asada Marinade image

I have used this recipe for a number of years, and most often marinate enough steak for a few meals. After the marinade time, the steak can be frozen in meal-sized portions for quick meals later. The flavor of this carne asada is much better, and the meat much more tender, than any I have had in Mexican restaurants. If cut in strips, this meat also works very well for fajitas. Serve with tortillas, Mexican rice, and beans.

  • Barbecue meat until just a slight amount of pink remains in the middle. Cut meat into small cubes and place in foil. Keep meat warm in the oven or away from the flame in the barbecue.
  • Heat refried beans in a small sauce pan. (Rosarita tastes the closest to homemade to me).
  • Place a small amount of canola oil into the bottom of a frying pan or iron skillet. Over medium heat, warm the tortillas, turning over once.
  • Spread a small amount of refried beans onto the center of the tortillas. Add meat, shredded cabbage, cilantro/onion mixture, jalapeno slice and a slice of avocado (if desired). Top with salsa verde and serve with key limes.
