Carne Asada

This is great for Cinco De Mayo or anytime.

I've used venison, but this is great with beef or lamb.

I've used a grill pan but this is also great on the grill.

Filling

1 lb. Venison
Zest and juice of 1 lime
1/8 - 1/4 tsp each: salt, pepper
1 clove garlic: crushed, chopped
2 - 4 T. oil
Pinch each: turmeric, red pepper flakes, dried parsley

Fixings

8 flour or corn tortillas or your favorite hard taco shells.
1 c. each approx.: shredded lettuce, shredded cheese, diced tomatoes,
1/2 c sour cream

Peel, crush and chop garlic.

Rinse, chop lettuce and tomatoes. Place veggies into separate bowls and place in refrigerator until ready to serve.

In a bowl combine, venison, lime juice, lime zest, garlic, red pepper flakes, parsley, salt and pepper.

Heat skillet to medium high heat.

Lower heat to medium and add oil. 

Add venison to pan and cook on 1 side for 5- 9 min or until done.

Flip venison on other side and cook on other side for 5 - 9 min. more or until done.

Let venison rest a few minutes before slicing. Slice venison into pieces.

Spoon venison into your favorite tortillas or taco shells. Top with your favorite fixings.

Serves 4.
