Ingredients
  

  • 2 Pounds Steak Thinly sliced. Ribeye, or New York Strip
  • 6 Hoagie Rolls
  • 1 Red Bell Pepper
  • 1 White Onion
  • 2-3 Jalapenos
  • 1 Cup Mexican Queso

Marinade

  • 1 Orange juiced
  • 2 Limes juiced
  • 2-3 Garlic Cloves minced
  • 2 Tablespoons White Vinegar
  • 1.5 teaspoons Adobo Seasoning
  • ½ teaspoon Black Pepper
  • ½ teaspoon Kosher Salt
  • ½ teaspoon Ground Cumin
  • ½ teaspoon Paprika
  • ½ teaspoon Garlic Powder
  • ½ teaspoon Mexican Oregano

Instructions
 

  • Combine all of the marinade ingredients in a bowl or large resealable bag and mix to combine. Add the sliced steak to the marinade and mix to evenly coat the meat.
  • Cover and place in the refrigerator for 4 hours. Do not exceed 4 hours or the meat will start to get mushy.
  • When you are ready to cook, heat a large heavy bottomed pan, Blackstone, or other griddle over medium-high heat. Add a little oil, and cook the onion, peppers, and sliced jalapenos until softened and slightly browned, about 3-6 minutes. Remove the veggies to a bowl and set aside.
  • Return the skillet or griddle to medium-high heat. Add the thin strips of beef and cook, stirring frequently, for about 2-3 minutes. Sprinkle with a little more adobo seasoning if desired. Cook for another 2-3 minutes until the beef is cooked through and slightly browned.
  • Add the veggies back briefly to rewarm.
  • Top the hoagies with the cooked carne asada meat and veggies then finish the Mexican cheesesteaks by topping with melted white queso. Enjoy while warm.
