MEXICAN CARNE ASADA MARINADE WITH SKIRT STEAK

THAT ANYONE CAN COOK

This Mexican carne asada marinade calls for just 4 ingredients (including skirt steak) and is packed with flavor, tenderizing the meat in 20 minutes.

It makes the best Mexican skirt steak marinade not only for grilling but also for sautéing, slow cooking, pressure cooking, baking, meal prep, and more.

Ingredients – Skirt steak – Olive oil – Taco seasoning 1 bag (see homemade recipe in the notes) – Lime juice

Instructions – Place skirt steak on a cutting board, remove the top fat and silver skin, top with a plastic sheet, and pound the meat with a mallet on both sides until it is about ¼-inch thick (0.5 cm). Slice the steak into 3 to 4 pieces to fit in into the skillet where it will cook.

– Then, combine the taco seasoning, olive oil, and lime juice in a large Ziploc bag and place the steak inside. Shake to combine!

– Next, squeeze the air out of the bag, seal, and let the skirt steak marinate at room temp for 20 minutes maximum. If you marinate longer, the meat flavors may get lost.

Remove the steak from the bag. Then dab to remove excess moisture from the marinade.

Cook the skirt steak either on a charcoal grill (preferred) or in a large cast-iron skillet or griddle.

– Transfer the steak(s) to a plate and tent with foil. Let it rest for 3-5 minutes and squeeze the juice of a lime on top. Cut into thin slices against the grain.
