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. |
