How to cook deliciously - Carne Asada

1. Stage

In a food processor or blender, blend cilantro, chile, adobo sauce, scallions, garlic, lime zest and juice, orange zest and juice, oil, Worcestershire, cumin, salt, and pepper until smooth.

2. Stage

Place steak into a large resealable bag and pour marinade over. Press as much air out of bag as possible and massage marinade into steak. Refrigerate at least 4 hours or up to overnight.

3. Stage

Prepare a grill for high heat; heat 5 minutes (or heat a grill pan over high heat). Pour a small amount of oil onto a wad of paper towels and rub grates until coated with a thin layer of oil.

4. Stage

Pat excess marinade from steak with paper towels; season both sides with a heavy pinch of salt and pepper.

5. Stage

Grill steak, turning once, until medium-rare or desired degree of doneness and an instant-read thermometer inserted into thickest part registers at least 125°, 2 to 3 minutes per side.

6. Stage

Transfer steak to a cutting board, tent with foil, and let rest 5 minutes. Slice against the grain into thin strips.

7. Stage

Arrange steak on a platter. Serve with salsa alongside.
