Begin by marinating some flank stead using my AMAZING Carne Asada Marinade Recipe.

Next, prepare the Creamy Guacamole.

Prepare some Pico de Gallo, or my Spicy Mexican Salsa.

Cook diced Carne Asada in a hot cast-iron skillet until slightly charred and cooked through.

Slightly char an extra large tortilla over a flame, to soften.

Spread some creamy guacamole and sour cream on the tortilla.

Next, add cooked Carne Asada and hot fries.
