Bourbon Marinated Carne Asada Tacos with Pineapple Salsa and Honey Lime Cream
Why is this a Foodgasm?
You take a nice lean cut of steak and marinate it in bourbon and lime overnight- SCORE! But then you toss on top some perfectly sweet and spicy pineapple salsa- BASES LOADED! Then we put all that in a warm corn tortilla and drizzle with a Honey Lime Cream- HOMERUN!
This dish packs on so many layers of flavors: so delicious, so sweet, so spicy and sinful you will think you have entered Dante’s third level of hell (for the gluttunous). But wait this is NY Foodgasm so I have slimmed down this amazing dish for your guilt free pleasure!
So now you cowgirls can have your steak and eat it too!

2- Pour in your lime juice, cilantro and lime zest and mix well. Taste and add sat to taste, I put in about 1/2 teaspoon.
Honey lime cream
