Carne Asada

Carne Asada - a must make Mexican recipe! Flank (or skirt steak) is marinated in a fresh, savory marinade that's rich in spices, herbs and bright citrus flavor. Then it's cooked over a hot grill to lend that perfect crave-able charred flavor to the exterior of the meat.

What is Carne Asada?

Carne Asada is a Mexican dish made with marinated beef (using less expensive cuts of steak such as skirt, flank, tenderloin, or rib) and it's usually cooked on a grill or in a heavy skillet.

Most frequently it's served alone or in tacos but can also be added to many various dishes (see ideas below).

Personally, it's one of my favorite things to order when eating out at Mexican restaurants, but of course I also love to make it at home.

This recipe is the best blend I've come up with, with a little of this and a handful of that. And together it creates one perfectly harmonious blend of flavors. Chef's kiss on this one!

What is Barbacoa?

Barbacoa is an authentic Mexican dish typically made with beef, goat or lamb. It is traditionally seasoned with dried chilies and spices and slowly cooked until perfectly tender. From there it's used as a delicious filling for tacos, burritos and so forth.

This is my favorite Barbacoa Beef recipe! I first shared the recipe back in April 2015 but have since decided those photos needed some updating.

It's an easy to make dish, nothing complicated and it doesn't use hard to find ingredients. It's incredibly flavorful and you'll love the brightness of the lime.

Most definitely a recipe easily worthy of your dinner rotation!

Chicken Fajita Kebabs

Chicken Fajita Kebabs are a new summertime staple! We all love the sizzling skillet seared chicken fajitas, then there's the simple sheet pan fajitas and the lazy slow cooker fajitas, but this version has that fire kissed goodness and it's served as bite size pieces on a skewer so it's much funner to eat!

And can we talk about that marinade for a second? It has all the best things and you'll love that blend of citrusy spiced flavors! Plus it makes the chicken oh so tender and amazingly flavorful.

Chicken Kebabs Meets Chicken Fajitas

I totally have a thing for kebabs. I don't know what it is but things just taste better when chopped up into smaller pieces and served skewer style. It must have something to do with the fact that the marinade can saturate each individual piece, plus there's the fact that everything is better bite size.

Here's a collection of my kebab recipes. You may as well make all of them this summer right?

Now there's these Chicken Fajita Kebabs and I still have two more kebab recipes I've made that I'll share soon!
