Tender & Juicy!

Strips of bold, grilled Mojo Carne Asada steak with citrus and beer are the ultimate hot-weather dinner! This easy recipe is your ticket to making it easily at home.

WHAT CUT OF BEEF SHOULD I USE?

Carne asada is Spanish for grilled meat, so it’s not necessarily any particular cut. Flank steak, skirt steak, flap meat, or hanger steak all work well!

Simple Ingredients

Beer Orange & Lime Juice Olive Oil Cilantro Salt Garlic Flank Steak Vegetable Oil Serving Options - Tortillas, Pico de Gallo, Guacamole, Lime Wedges

Make the Marinade

01

Combine the beer, orange juice, olive oil, lime juice, cilantro, garlic, and salt, and reserve ¼ cup of the mixture in the fridge.

Marinate the Steak

02

Add the flank steak to the marinade, and coat it all around. Marinate for 1 hour on the counter, or 2 hours in the fridge.

Grill the Steak

03

Preheat the grill to high, and cook the steak for about 6-7 minutes per side.  Let rest for 10 minutes before serving.

Slice and Serve

04

Thinly slice the steak against the grain, and serve it with tortillas, pico de gallo, guacamole, and lime wedges.
