We use a delicious Carne Asada Marinade that flavors it perfectly for Carne Asada Tacos, Burritos, and more.
A Punch of Flavor to Love!
Carne asada is an easy dinner recipe you can whip up and add to any Mexican recipe you’d like! Growing up in a Mexican household, we loved simple recipes like carne asada that were perfect for nights when we were craving restaurant-style Street Tacos and Chimichangas. Why we love it:
Authentic flavor. The marinade makes it juicy and packed with flavor and spices. The flavor is savory and perfectly complements the meat. Used in many dishes. We love grilling up the meat, slicing it or cubing it, and adding it to our favorite Mexican dinner recipes. Quick dinner. Make extra and freeze to use in Quesadillas with Homemade Flour Tortillas or on top of your favorite salad for a quick weeknight meal.
