Carne Asada Fries

How to make Carne Asada Fries Recipe

Serves: 6

Ingredients:
1 pound skirt steak
2 tbsp All Purpose Grilling Rub
1 pound waffle fries, frozen
1 cup shredded cheddar cheese
1/4 cup crema
1/2 cup Pico de Gallo (see below)
1/2 cup diced avocado
1/2 cup grated cotija cheese

Pico de Gallo:
2 Roma tomatoes, diced
1 jalapeño, deseeded, deveined, and diced
1/2 cup diced white onion
1 tbsp chopped cilantro
2 tbsp lime juice
1/2 tsp Kosher salt

Method:
Prepare the Pico de Gallo: mix all ingredients together and refrigerate until ready to use. Set up the cooker for direct heat grilling at 400+ degrees F.

Apply the rub on the skirt steak and let it sit at room temperature for a few minutes to let the meat absorb the seasonings.

Meanwhile, prepare the waffle fries according to the package instructions.

Grill the steaks over high heat until the meat starts to char a little or until medium, 140 degrees F internal temperature. Remove from the grill and slice the steak against the grain and then wrap the steak in aluminum foil and set aside.

In a foil pan, add the waffle fries and top with the steak. Sprinkle the cheddar cheese over the top and melt on the grill or in the oven.

Pile on the toppings starting with the crema first, followed by Pico de Gallo, avocado, and cotija. Serve immediately.
