Carne Asada Tacos
Recipe courtesy of Food Network Kitchen
Total: 5 hr
Active: 40 min
Yield: 6 to 12 servings (make 12 tacos)
Level: Easy

Ingredients

1 1/2 teaspoons cumin seed
4 serrano chilies, halved (seeds removed for less heat)
2 cloves garlic
3 tablespoons vegetable oil, plus more for brushing the grill and scallions
2 tablespoons light brown sugar
Juice of 4 limes (about 1/3 cup), plus lime wedges, for serving
Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
2 pounds skirt steak (halved, if needed, to fit on the grill)
2 bunches scallions
24 white corn tortillas
Guacamole, for serving
Pico de gallo, for serving

Directions

Heat a large cast-iron skillet over medium-high heat. Add the cumin seed and cook, stirring occasionally, until toasted, about 1 minute. Transfer to a small bowl. Add the chilies and garlic to the skillet. Cook over medium high heat, turning occasionally, until both are soft and blotchy black in spots, about 5 minutes. Remove from the skillet and cool. Add the chilies, garlic, toasted cumin seeds, oil, brown sugar and lime juice, 1 1/2 teaspoon salt and a few grinds of pepper to a blender and process until very smooth. Transfer the marinade to a large re-sealable plastic bag and add the steak. Shake well to coat, refrigerate for 1 to 4 hours.

Prepare a grill for high heat.

Remove the steaks from the marinade and shake off any excess. Brush the grill grates lightly with oil, lay the steak on the grill and cook until very well charred and grill marks appear, about 5 minutes. Turn the steaks and continue to cook until nicely charred, about 1 to 3 minutes more depending on thickness. Transfer the steaks to a cutting board and let rest for 10 minutes. While the steak rests, brush the scallions lightly with oil and grill, turning once until wilted and charred, about 2 minutes. Coarsely chop.

Warm the tortillas on the grill grates. Thinly slice the steak against the grain on a bias. Double the tortillas then top with the steak, grilled scallions, guacamole and pico de gallo. Serve with lime wedges.
