Sammy's Asada

This vibrant carne asada recipe brings the bright, zesty flavours of Latin American street food to your home kitchen. The secret lies in a citrus-heavy marinade, where fresh lime and orange juices work to tenderise the beef while infusing it with a sharp, refreshing tang. Using high-quality flank or skirt steak ensures a deep, savoury flavour that develops beautifully when seared over a high heat, resulting in a perfectly charred exterior and a succulent, tender middle.

As a high-protein dish, this grilled steak is an excellent choice for a nutritious and filling dinner. It is incredibly versatile, whether you are serving it sliced for family-style tacos with soft corn tortillas or alongside wholesome portions of black beans and zesty guacamole. This simple yet sophisticated main course is certain to become a regular fixture for weekend barbecues or effortless midweek entertaining.

Ingredients for Sammy's Asada

  • 1 jalapeño pepper, seeded and chopped

  • 2 dientes de ajo, picados

  • 1 large handful of fresh oregano

  • 3 limes, juiced

  • 1 orange, juiced

  • 120ml de aceite de oliva

  • 900g flank or skirt steak

  • Sal y pimienta negra recién molida

  • Tortillas, rice, beans, and guacamole, for serving

  1. Put the pepper, garlic, oregano, lime and orange juices, and olive oil in a large nonreactive mixing bowl and whisk until the marinade emulsifies. Pour the marinade into a large zip-lock bag and add the steak, shaking until the meat gets well coated. (You can also put the steak directly in the mixing bowl, but you'll want to turn it at least once while the meat is marinating.) Refrigerate for at least 2 hours but no longer than overnight. When you're ready to start cooking, remove the steak from the marinade, pat dry, and let the meat come to room temperature.

  2. Preheat an outdoor grill over a medium-high flame and brush the grates of the grill with oil so the meat doesn't stick. (You can also grill the meat in the oven.)

  3. Sprinkle the meat with salt and pepper and grill (or grill) for about 7 minutes per side. I like mine medium-rare. If you don't, grill (or grill) about 2 minutes more.

  4. Remove the steak from the heat and let it rest on a cutting board for about 5 minutes, then slice it diagonally against the grain.

  5. Warm up your tortillas. Get your rice, beans, and guacamole ready, and you're good to go.
