Instructions
1

Start by marinating the carne asada in lime juice, garlic, and spices for at least 30 minutes. Preheat a grill or skillet over medium-high heat.

2

Cook the marinated carne asada for about 5-7 minutes on each side until it reaches your desired doneness.

3

Remove the carne asada from the heat and let it rest for a few minutes before slicing it into thin strips.

4

While the meat is resting, prepare the French fries according to the package instructions until they are golden and crispy.

5

Warm the flour tortillas in a dry skillet for about 30 seconds on each side until they are pliable. To assemble the burrito, place a generous amount of carne asada in the center of each tortilla.

6

Add a handful of crispy French fries on top of the carne asada. Spoon a generous amount of guacamole over the fries.

7

Sprinkle shredded cheese and fresh cilantro on top for added flavor. Fold the sides of the tortilla over the filling and then roll it up tightly from the bottom to the top.

8

Serve the burrito with salsa or hot sauce on the side for dipping.
