Carne Asada con Mojo (Grilled Beef with Sour Orange Marinade)
Carne asada is a simple dish, but a well-balanced marinade and the right cut can make it memorable. Silvana Salcido Esparza, chef of the popular Barrio Café in Phoenix and Barrio Queen in Scottsdale, Arizona, recommends using skirt steak, which can be easier to find at a non-Mexican market. It grills up tender, juicy, and very flavorful. The marinade for asada is traditionally made with Seville (sour) oranges, but since they're hard to find out of season, even in Mexican markets, we've used a combination of orange and lime juices instead.
