Authentic carne asada

What could be better than spicy marinated and tender grass fed beef grilled quickly and served with gluten-free, grain-free tortillas plus an individualized selection of toppings? Adapted from an authentic recipe by a dear friend who hails from Mexico City, OurNutritionKitchen.com brings you authentic Carne Asada.

Serves 4

Ingredients
1½ pounds grass fed flank steak or pasture-raised chicken tenders
4 garlic cloves, finely chopped
1 jalapeno pepper, finely chopped
¼ cup finely chopped cilantro
1 teaspoon cumin
½-1 teaspoon cayenne pepper
1 teaspoon oregano
2 limes, juiced
1 orange, juiced
8 to 12 ounces micro-brew beer (or beef bone broth)

Sliced avocado, cilantro, lettuce, tomatoes… your choice
Probiotic Salsa
Pat’s Super Simple Grain Free Tortillas

Preparation

  1. Combine all ingredients in a glass bowl and let sit several hours.
  2. Preheat a grill to slow heat.
  3. Grill the meat to desired doneness—usually just a few minutes per side for these thin cuts
  4. Slice and serve with Pat’s Freedom from wheat and corn tortillas, your selection of lettuce, avocado, chopped cilantro, easy homemade probiotic salsa… put these in separate serving dishes so everyone can grab what they love.

Savor!
