Use jalapenos to spice up this delicious marinade which works to infuse the meat with flavour before barbecuing. Likewise with the rice, add a good tablespoon of lime zest and a squeeze of juice for added zing.
CARNE ASADA RECIPE
Serves 4
½ cup sliced jalapenos
1 green chilli, seeds removed
1 ½ cups
1. First make the marinade. Place the jalapenos, green chilli, coriander, soy sauce, garlic, lime zest and juice, cumin, chilli flakes, salt and oil in a blender, blitzing until smooth.
2. Smother half the mixture over the steaks, leaving it for at least 30 minutes to marinate. Keep the remaining mixture for serving alongside.
3. Preheat a barbecue or hot pan to a medium heat. Cook the steaks for 3 or 4 minutes each side depending on the thickness. Allow to rest for 5-10 minutes.
4. To serve, slice the beef thinly and serve on rice with half an avocado and a good dollop of the remaining marinade.
