Carne asada

Roasted, Grilled and Fried Dishes

Carne asada is grilled and sliced beef, usually skirt steak, flap steak or flank steak, though chuck steak can also be used. It is typically marinated, then grilled or seared to give it a charred flavor, and can be served on its own or as an ingredient in other dishes. The term is used in the northern part of Latin America for this style of grilled meat, while in South America grilled meat is more commonly called asado, a different style and preparation.
