The last time I entered a post was two days before I started my new job. I love my job, but I was not used to the 40 minute commute each way. To add to that, I am just busy all day. Still, I am much happier than I have been in a career for many years. What has suffered though is my cooking. At the end of the day, I want to collapse, not cook. I have been sick this week and reviewing many cookbooks and magazines to find those recipes that are 30 minutes or less. These carne asada tacos fit the bill. I will use either a flat iron steak or flank steak or skirt steak. I marinate it in chopped cilantro, onions, garlic, salt and pepper and lime juice; I will also add mexican seasoning if I have it on hand. Throw it on the grill for about 4 minutes on each side after letting it marinate for about 24 hours. I chop the steak but some people just slice it. Serve it on corn tortillas with limes, cilantro and whatever other garnishes you enjoy. It is simple, quick and honestly, just really, really good.
