Step by Step
1. Marinate the Meat
Start by cutting the meat into thin slices. Mix the lime juice, minced garlic, and salt in a bowl. Submerge the meat in this mixture and let it marinate for at least 30 minutes. This will give it an incredible flavor!
2. Prepare the Grill
Make sure your grill is clean and ready. Light the charcoal and wait until it's really hot (the coals should be glowing red). Before placing the meat on the grill, rub the grill with half an onion for an extra touch of flavor.
3. Cook the Meat
Place the meat on the grill and cook for 6 minutes per side for medium-rare. Adjust the time according to your preference: 8 minutes for medium-rare and 10 minutes for well-done.
4. Serve and Enjoy
Once cooked, remove the meat and let it rest for a few minutes. Serve with warm tortillas, beans, pico de gallo, and guacamole. Ready! Now you can enjoy authentic Mexican-style carne asada.
