Directions
Carne Asada Burrito, San Diego Style, For all of you poor, displaced San Diego-ites, the quest to find an authentic carne asada burrito is always disappointing, until now. This recipe was posted on Onestopcook.com by David. I only added the limes It’s been over 4 years since I was in S.D. last and I have been craving this burrito ever since. I ate 5 of these bad boys in 2 days. I would take a bite, close my eyes, and dream of La Jolla, Balboa park or a stroll around Seaport Village. I hope you enjoy it as much as I did., Absolutely delicious! My only tweak would be to half the lemon in the pico and guacamole. But other than that, this is the carne Asada burrito I grew up on in San Diego. I also didnt add the jalepeno but that was only because I didnt have it on hand. Im a sucker for tender meat so I got boneless ribeye steak and cut it super thin and small. It was so tender and amazing. I will forever use this recipe. I miss my San Diego carne asada. But not anymore!, This recipe is spot on. Moved out of SD several years ago and am saddened by what passes for a good carne asada burrito outside of SD. Thank you for posting this. Planning to make it again tonight for my husband.

on High Heat Add a Teaspoon of Oil to a Medium Sized Skillet. I Prefer Cast Iron When Oil Begins to Smoke Add 1/4 to 1/3 Pound of Carne Asada Meat and Onions. Sear the Meat Until Brown on Both Sides. Place the Meat and Onions in the Center of a Warm Tortilla. Add Pico De Gallo, Guacamole, and French Fries and/or Cheeses If Desired and Fold in the Sides to Form a Burrito. Serve Hot. |

Note: Meat Seems to Cook Best in Small Batches, It Gets Chewy If Cooked All at Once. I Cook Enough For Just One or Two Burritos at a Time. |
