Preparation
Chef’s notes
Use a hot cast iron grill pan for cooking indoors to achieve a better sear and smoky flavors.
Use reduced sodium soy sauce for less salt without compromising flavor.
Use freshly squeezed lime juice for more vibrant flavors.
Let the meat rest for at least 5 minutes before serving for maximum flavor and juiciness.
Slice against the grain for more tender pieces of meat.
Double the sauce if needed for tacos or burrito bowls.
