Instructions
- In a large stainless steel or glass bowl, mix the meat with the onions, orange juice, salt, pepper and oil. Cover and marinate at least 1 hour, or better yet overnight.
- Start a good fire in your grill, preferably with mesquite charcoal. Remove the meat from its marinade, pat dry and grill over hot flame until the first side is well browned, from 5-7 minutes.
- Turn the meat over and grill on the other side until cooked to desired doneness. Remove to a clean platter.
- Slice meat into thin strips across the grain and serve as a topping for tostadas or as a filling for tacos or burritos.
- VARIATIONS:
- Add some lime juice along with the orange juice in the marinade. Or use sour orange juice (naranja agria) if you can find it.
- Other possible marinade additions include ground cumin, chili powder and chopped cilantro. Everyone has their own favorites.
