Recipe Instructions:

Okay. Imagine this if you will—you're walking down the street in Tijuana, Rosarito, Ensenada—or anywhere south of the border. You smell that distinctive aroma that tells you someone nearby is barbecuing steak. Your olfactories are instantly electrified, your mouth waters and you turn your head to see where the wondrous smell is coming from. You move in for a closer look. They're scarfing plates full of tacos. The lady behind the counter tosses a few slabs of carne asada onto a grill behind the counter, cooks them, removes the meat to a wooden board and quickly chops it into tiny pieces with a meat cleaver. Meanwhile, she's heated up corn tortillas and she heaps grilled meat on top of each tortilla. She hands a plate to him and motions for him to add cilantro, roasted chiles, cheese, onions, tomatoes, any of several types of salsa, cabbage, huge radishes and sour cream sauce to his tacos.

Enjoy this delicious Carne Asada Mexican recipe!
