Taqueria-Style Tacos - Carne Asada

These carne asada tacos made with tender strips of flank steak, served on soft corn tortillas are as good as you get at a taqueria. So delicious topped with onion relish and homemade tomato salsa!

Ingredients

• 3 pounds flank steak
• ½ cup soy sauce
• ½ cup olive oil
• ⅓ cup white vinegar
• 4 cloves garlic, minced
• 2 limes, juiced
• 1 teaspoon salt
• 1 teaspoon ground black pepper
• 1 teaspoon ground white pepper
• 1 teaspoon garlic powder
• 1 teaspoon chili powder
• 1 teaspoon dried oregano
• 1 teaspoon ground cumin
• 1 teaspoon paprika
• Corn tortillas

Steps

1. Lay flank steak in a large glass baking dish.
2. Make the marinade: Whisk soy sauce, oil, vinegar, 4 cloves of garlic, juice of two limes, salt, black pepper, white pepper, garlic powder, chili powder, oregano, cumin, and paprika together in a bowl until well blended; pour over steak, turning to coat both sides. Cover the dish with plastic wrap and marinate in the refrigerator for 1 to 8 hours.
3. Remove steak from the marinade and shake off excess. Discard the remaining marinade. Cut the marinated flank steak into cubes or strips. Heat vegetable oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add steak; cook and stir until cooked through and most of the liquid has evaporated.
4. Warm tortillas in a dry skillet over low heat for about a minute on each side.
5. Place some steak on each tortilla; top with relish and prepared salsa. Sprinkle with cotija cheese. Garnish with lime wedges and serve.
