Ingredients
  

  • 1 lb skirt steak
  • 1 teaspoon paprika
  • 1 teaspoon onion powder
  • 2 cups cornflour
  • 1.5 cups of water
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • 3 teaspoon oil
  • WHOLLY® Guacamole Minis Cups Classic
  • HERDEZ® Casera Salsa Medium
  • Mexican cheese blend

Instructions
 

Carne Asada

  • Add salt and pepper to the steak, paprika, and onion powder. Let it marinate in the fridge for 10-15 minutes.
  • Grill the steak on high heat until cooked to your desired temperature. I like it medium so I do about 3-4 minutes per side depending on how thick your meat is.

Gorditas

  • Make the Gorditas by mixing the cornflour, salt, and water until a paste is formed. It should not be too sticky but soft. Form balls and flatten them until you have a round thick patty.
  • Preheat the oven to 350 F.
  • Heat the oil and cook the corn patties for 4 minutes on each side until golden brown. Place them on a baking sheet and bake for 30 minutes or until the patties are fully cooked.
  • Let them cool down. Slice them in the middle and stuff them with a layer of WHOLLY® Guacamole Minis Cups Classic. Add your Carne Asada, and top them with a layer of salsa HERDEZ® Casera Salsa Medium. Add cheese if you’d like.
