I got this carne asada recipe from my friend's mother in Phoenix. The recipe will marinate 5 to 6 pounds of meat and can be halved or doubled. Serve this with flour tortillas and salsa.

Ingredients

  • 5 pounds beef skirt steak , thinly sliced
  • 1 cup water
  • 1 orange , sliced
  • 0.67 cups orange juice
  • 0.67 cups lime juice
  • 0.5 cups red wine vinegar
  • 1 lime , sliced
  • 1 bunch fresh cilantro leaves , chopped
  • 0.25 cups vegetable oil
  • 1 tablespoon salt
  • 3 cloves garlic , minced
  • 1 tablespoon ground white pepper
  • 1 tablespoon ground black pepper
  • 1 tablespoon dried Mexican oregano
  • 1 tablespoon ground cumin
  • 1 tablespoon chili powder
  • 0.25 teaspoons ground cloves

Instructions

  1. 1

    Place beef in a large resealable plastic bag.

  2. 2

    Combine water, orange slices, orange juice, lime juice, vinegar, lime slices, cilantro, oil, salt, garlic, white pepper, black pepper, oregano, cumin, chili powder, and cloves in a large bowl. Whisk to combine. Pour marinade on top of beef and seal the bag.

  3. 3

    Marinate beef in the refrigerator, 2 hours to overnight.

  4. 4

    Preheat an outdoor grill for medium heat and lightly oil the grate.

  5. 5

    Grill beef in the preheated grill over direct heat until firm and slightly pink in the center, 2 to 3 minutes per side. An instant-read thermometer inserted into the center should read 140 degrees F (60 degrees C) for medium.
