3
Cover the dish and refrigerate for at least ⏱️ 2 hours or, even better, overnight to infuse the flavors.
4
Remove the marinated steak from the refrigerator and allow it to reach room temperature before cooking.
5
Heat a skillet over medium-high heat until hot.
6
Carefully place the marinated steak in the hot skillet. Sear it for approximately ⏱️ 4-5 minutes on each side or until your desired level of doneness is achieved. Aim for an internal temperature of 130-135°F (55-57°C) for a tender medium-rare.
7
Once the carna asada is cooked to perfection, transfer it to a cutting board and let it rest for a few minutes. This step ensures the juices are evenly distributed, resulting in maximum tenderness.
8
If desired, sprinkle chopped cilantro or parsley to enhance the taste.
