Directions

1In a medium bowl, whisk together the vinegar, soy sauce, minced garlic, lime juice, and olive oil.
2Stir in salt, black pepper, garlic powder, chili powder, oregano, cumin, and paprika until well combined.
3Place the flank steak in a large dish and pour the marinade over it. Turn the steak to coat both sides evenly.
4Cover and marinate for at least 6 hours, or overnight for deeper flavor.
5In a small bowl, combine chopped white onion, cilantro, and lime juice. Mix well, cover, and refrigerate until ready to use.
6Heat a skillet over medium-high heat. Toast the dried chile pods for 1–2 minutes until fragrant, then transfer them to hot water and soak for 30 minutes.
7Preheat the oven to 450°F. Place tomatoes, quartered onion, jalapeños, and garlic on a baking sheet. Roast for about 20 minutes until slightly charred and softened.
8Drain the softened chiles and blend them with the roasted vegetables until smooth. Season with salt and pepper to taste.
9Heat a grill pan or skillet over medium-high heat with a drizzle of oil.
10Remove the steak from the marinade and cook it whole for about 4–5 minutes per side for medium-rare.
11Transfer the steak to a cutting board and let it rest for 5 minutes. Slice thinly against the grain for tender pieces.
12Heat corn tortillas in a skillet until warm and flexible.
13Place slices of carne asada onto each tortilla. Top with onion relish and a spoonful of homemade salsa.
14Sprinkle with Cotija cheese and finish with a squeeze of lime if desired.
