CARNE ASADA WITH BLACK BEANS



Carne Asada With Black Beans image

At Frontera Grill in Chicago Chef Rick Bayless serves this classic dish that combines grilled marinated steak, fried plantains, homemade black beans & fresh guacamole. The easy way - trim back the ingredients in the marinade and use canned black beans served with avocado slices. Food & Wine Magazine, July 2008 edition. The ancho-chile marinade can be made up to a week ahead. The cooked black beans can be refrigerated up to 2 days ahead or on the spur of the moment - open up cans of cooked black beans & rinse them real well! The marinade needs to season the rib-eye steaks overnight. When we made it we served the guacamole; a dollops of sour cream and fried ripe plantains. Delicioso :)

CARNE ASADA



Carne Asada image

This traditional Mexican dish is made by marinating skirt steak in a spicy, citrusy puree, charring it on the grill and then thinly slicing the meat. We suggest serving carne asada as a main dish with rice and beans, but you could also add it to tacos, burritos, tostadas and more.

Time 4h40m

Yield 4 to 6 servings

Number Of Ingredients 10

4 cloves garlic, roughly chopped
2 medium jalapeno chiles, stemmed and roughly chopped
Juice of 2 limes, plus extra wedges for serving
Juice of 1 orange
1 1/2 cups lightly packed fresh cilantro (leaves and tender stems)
1/4 cup olive oil, plus more for the grill
3 tablespoons sugar
2 tablespoons distilled white vinegar
Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
One 2-pound skirt steak

Steps:

  • Add the garlic, jalapenos, lime juice, orange juice, cilantro, olive oil, sugar, vinegar, 1 teaspoon salt and several grinds of pepper to a food processor and puree until very smooth.
  • Cut the steak crosswise into thirds (skirt steak is typically long and skinny, so this will make the pieces more manageable when grilling). Place in a large resealable plastic bag, then pour in the marinade, flipping and massaging the steak to make sure it's evenly coated. Remove as much air as possible, then seal the bag and refrigerate for 2 to 4 hours (any longer and the citrus juice will start to "cook" the steak).
  • Preheat a grill for medium-high heat and brush the hot grates with oil. Remove the steak from the marinade, letting excess drip off, and season both sides with a pinch each of salt and pepper. Grill until nicely charred on the outside, 3 to 4 minutes per side for medium-rare. Transfer to a cutting board to rest, about 10 minutes. Thinly slice the steak against the grain, then serve with lime wedges.
