This is a household favorite! very fresh and healthy. The tomatillo sauce is to die for, keeps well so you can use it on lots of other things. My roomate and boyfriend request this weekly. Great recipe!

I followed this recipe with a few alterations suggested by other readers, and it was exactly what I hoped it to be. I'm originally from San Diego, CA but have moved to the East coast and haven't had real, authentic tasting Mexican food in such a long time. This hit the spot. THANKS!

I have two minor complaints about this recipe. First, I won't be using beef broth when I make these next time and will probably opt for veggie broth instead. The beef broth has a flavor that's out of place it permeated the tomatillo salsa. I also found the meat to be underseasoned compared to what I'm accustomed to when I think of carne asada taco. I also had trouble finding canned tomatillos so I got fresh ones from Whole Foods instead. I think that turned out for the best.

I made this for me and my 2 kids using the Verde sauce suggested by another reviewer. The prep was simple (and my daughter enjoyed helping cut the veggies). I liked the end result, but it was too spicy for both my kids. I used the extras in an omlette the following morning. This is a good recipe, but probably won't work for you if you have young kids.

I only made the marinade and it was VERY good. I love the flavor. I can't figure out why my meat is still a little tough after marinade for so long, but I will make again because of the flavor.

These are fantastic! Didn't change a thing. A note though, the photo displayed is of a flour tortilla, not corn tortilla! Makes a big difference.

My husband really liked this one and I enjoyed it, although I found the sauce very runny - I think that maybe when I added the tomatillos I should have drained the liquid from the can, but since the recipe didn't say (drained), I didn't. I couldn't get the sauce to really thicken up. Very nice combination of tastes though!

Not bad for carne asada made on the stove and not on the grill. I would not recommend making the sauce. It was time consuming and not worth the effort.

I thought it was very yummy, I didnt do the homemade salsa though. I also grilled it and loved it that way, marindae was perfect.

this turned out really pretty good. I asked my butcher to cut the steak into very small pieces for me which made it much easier for me. I also added a little bit of organic mexican seasoning (only about 1 teaspoon for the entire thing....adds a little flavor). My husband won't eat ground beef tacos anymore after this!!

I'm giving this three stars because even though I didn't care for it, my husband thought it was pretty good. Although, the meat was actually better without the sauce stuff.

These were pretty tasty. I used New York Strip and left out the lemon at the end, opting for more lime. Also, made guacamole instead of using avocado.

Very good. I grilled the meat after marinating and then cut it up for the tacos. We liked it.

Oh yeah! These are great. Followed a previous suggestion and used the La Victoria sauce instead of making the sauce. We used flour tortillas and made these into burritos (easier for my kids to eat). Good with pepper jack, too!

A little time consuming. Definitely, this is not a quick meal. Taste is great, better than the ones in our local restaurant.
