Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 pound Flank steak
- 3 tablespoons Olive oil
- 4 tablespoons Lime juice
- 3 Garlic cloves, minced
- 1 teaspoon Ground cumin
- 1 teaspoon Paprika
- 1 teaspoon Salt
- 0.5 teaspoon Black pepper
- 4 Keto-friendly tortillas
- 1 Avocado, sliced
- 2 tablespoons Cilantro, chopped
- 0.25 Red onion, thinly sliced
- 1 cup Grated cheddar cheese
- 0.5 cup Sour cream
- 4 Romaine lettuce leaves
Instructions
In a bowl, mix together olive oil, lime juice, minced garlic, ground cumin, paprika, salt, and black pepper to create a marinade.
Place the flank steak in a shallow dish and pour the marinade over it, ensuring the steak is well-coated. Cover and let it marinate in the refrigerator for at least 30 minutes, or up to 4 hours for more flavor.
Preheat a grill or skillet over medium-high heat. Once hot, add the marinated flank steak and cook for 6-7 minutes on each side or until the steak reaches your desired level of doneness.
Remove the steak from the heat and let it rest for 5 minutes before slicing it thinly against the grain.
Warm the keto-friendly tortillas on a skillet or in the microwave for a few seconds until they are pliable.
To assemble the burrito, lay a tortilla flat and add sliced steak, avocado, cilantro, red onion, grated cheddar cheese, a dollop of sour cream, and a leaf of romaine lettuce.
Fold in the sides of the tortilla, then roll it up tightly from the bottom to form a burrito.
Repeat with the remaining tortillas and ingredients.
Serve the keto carne asada burritos immediately and enjoy!
