Carne Asada Tacos
-
Ingredients:
1 c. coarsely chopped fresh cilantro, plus more for serving
1 chipotle chile in adobo, plus 1 tbsp. adobo sauce
2 scallions, coarsely chopped
3 cloves garlic, finely chopped
Zest and juice of 2 limes
Zest and juice of 1 navel orange
1 tbsp. canola oil, plus more for grill
1 tbsp. Worcestershire sauce
2 1/2 tsp. ground cumin
1 tsp. kosher salt, plus more
1 tsp. freshly ground black pepper, plus more
1 lb. skirt or flank steak, trimmed, cut into 6" pieces
8 small corn tortillas
1/2 c. chopped white onion
Sliced red radishes, cotija, and salsa verde, for serving
Directions:
Step 1
In a food processor or blender, blend cilantro, chipotle chile, adobo sauce, scallions, garlic, lime zest, lime juice, orange zest, orange juice, oil, Worcestershire sauce, cumin, salt, and pepper until smooth.
Step 2
Place steak in a large resealable bag and pour in marinade. Press air out of bag and massage marinade into steak. Refrigerate at least 4 hours or up to overnight.
Step 3
Prepare a grill for medium-high heat; heat 5 minutes (or preheat a large cast-iron skillet over medium-high heat). Pour a small amount of oil onto a wad of paper towels and rub grates until coated with a thin layer of oil. Repeat if needed to make sure grates are coated.
Step 4
Using paper towels, pat excess marinade from steak; season both sides with a heavy pinch of salt and pepper.
Step 5
Grill steak until just browned on one side, about 3 minutes. Flip and continue to grill until second side is browned and an instant-read thermometer inserted into thickest part registers 125°, 2 to 3 minutes more. Transfer steak to a cutting board, tent with foil, and let rest 5 minutes.
Step 6
Meanwhile, reduce grill heat to medium and grill tortillas until just toasted, 20 to 30 seconds per side. Transfer tortillas to a platter.
Step 7
Slice steak against the grain into bite-sized pieces. Top each tortilla with steak, onion, cilantro, radishes, cotija, and salsa verde.
