Carne Asada Tacos With Pineapple Salsa
- 1 1/2 pounds flank steak
- 1/4 cup orange juice
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 2 tablespoons lime juice
- 2 tablespoons chopped cilantro
- 3 teaspoons minced garlic
- 1/2 teaspoon cumin
- 1/2 teaspoon dried oregano
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 1/2 teaspoon pepper
- 2 tablespoons jalapeno seeded, diced
- sour cream
- corn tortillas
- queso fresco
- cilantro
- lime wedges
- tomato
- chopped onion
- avocado
- 2 cups fresh pineapple roughly cubed
- 1 cup tomato roughly chopped
- 1/4 cup white onion or roughly chopped red
- 1 handful fresh cilantro
- 1 jalapeno pepper seeded and roughly chopped
- 1 teaspoon minced garlic
- 1 lime
- salt to taste
- Place flank steak in a large casserole dish or in a gallon-size plastic bag. Whisk together orange juice, oil, lime juice, cilantro, garlic, cumin, oregano, salt, pepper and jalapeno; pour over flank steak. Cover dish with plastic wrap or seal bag; marinate in refrigerator 1 to 8 hours.
- Meanwhile, make the salsa: Place all ingredients except salt in blender. Blend on "chop" setting a few seconds until finely diced. Season with salt to taste. Transfer to a large bowl; cover and chill until ready to serve.
- When steak is fully marinated, heat a tablespoon or so of oil in a large cast-iron skillet over medium-high heat.* Remove steak from marinade and cook, flipping occasionally, until well-browned on the edges and medium-well or well done in the center. Transfer to a cutting board; let rest 5 minutes. Slice steak into thin strips against the grain.
- Serve steak with tortillas, queso freso, cilantro, lime wedges, chopped tomato, chopped onion, sliced avocado, sour cream, etc. for serving. Serve pineapple salsa with tortilla chips.
- Tip: You can also grill the steak over medium-high heat. Brush grates with oil and grill steak on each side for a few minutes until medium-well or well done. Proceed with directions.
