Carne Asada Fries

Good Carne Asada fries? My son is craving them after having some really good ones in San Diego. 😅

It’s best to mix up the spices beforehand and then sprinkle the mixture on the steak, fries, or whatever you are seasoning. It gives it a much more even coating and an equal amount of each ingredient used across the whole thing or on each piece. Just a tip Also, marinate in a bag.
