Why We Love This Steak Recipe<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

We tried Tampique\u00f1a for the first time on a recent trip to Puerto Vallarta and were spellbound by the tenderness and overall texture. The flavors are bold and exciting<\/em> \u2013 but, surprisingly, the dish is pretty easy to prepare!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

This classic Carne Asada Tampique\u00f1a<\/strong> recipe makes melt-in-your-mouth skirt steak with very little effort. Simply marinate the meat in a vibrant red wine marinade, then grill with fresh poblano peppers and sweet onion. In 5 minutes on the grill you have tender, flavorful Mexican steak to serve as a main dish protein, or slice and serve in tacos!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

What is it?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Carne Asada<\/a> refers to a wide range of grilled red meat dishes. Tampique\u00f1a Carne Asada is a variation from the Mexican city of Tampico<\/strong>. It consists of skirt steak pounded thin and marinated to tender perfection! The meat is most commonly grilled with a combination of onions and poblanos, or other local seasonal produce.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Side dishes often include black beans or pinto beans, rice, and an enchilada with green or red sauce. And these dishes (and their colors) usually represent the specific city and region where the dish is being served.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

How is it Different from Carne Asada?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Tampiquena is a type of Carne Asada. However, traditional Carne Asada has a more robust marinade and less of a focus on tenderness. Also, it is usually sliced thinly against the grain to counteract the tough texture.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Tampiquena is meant to be\u00a0served as a whole steak<\/strong>, so tenderness is the focus. This is achieved by pounding the steak thinly and marinating it over time.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
