Flavorful Carne Asada Tostadas with Guacamole and Pico de Gallo

Serving: Serve immediately for the crispiest texture. Pair with Mexican rice, beans, or a fresh salad.
Storage: Store leftover carne asada in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days.
Reheating: Warm the steak in a skillet over low heat or microwave briefly. Assemble tostadas just before serving to prevent sogginess.
Variations
Spicy Kick: Add sliced jalapeños or a drizzle of hot sauce for extra heat.
Different Protein: Swap the steak for grilled chicken, shrimp, or carnitas for a variation.
Vegetarian Option: Replace the carne asada with grilled mushrooms, black beans, or roasted sweet potatoes.
Corn Tortilla Alternative: Use soft corn tortillas instead of tostadas for easy carne asada tacos.
FAQ
1. Can I use a different cut of steak?
Yes! Sirloin or ribeye can also work, but flank or skirt steak gives the best balance of tenderness and flavor.

2. Can I cook the steak indoors instead of grilling?
Absolutely! Use a cast-iron skillet over high heat for a great sear or cook it under the broiler for a charred effect.

3. How do I keep tostadas from getting soggy?
Spread guacamole on the tostada first—it creates a barrier between the shell and the toppings, keeping it crisp longer.
