Instructions
- Make 1 recipe for carne asada and cut grilled meat into sandwich sized portions.

Notes
- Tips:
- It’s important that the carne asada has marinated for several hours, although overnight is best, to help tenderize the meat and for maximum flavor.
- The grill, skillet or grill pan being use should be hot before adding the carne. The carne asada should only be cooked on both sides for a few minutes to avoid overcooking, resulting in a tough texture.
- The carne asada can be marinated up to 2 days ahead of time.
- To Freeze: Place the marinated steak into a resealable bag, removing as much excess air before sealing, and freeze for up to 3 months. When ready to use, place the frozen bag of carne asada onto a plate and thaw in the refrigerator overnight.
