Living close to the Mexican border I have always
enjoyed tacos, burritos, and tortas. This
rub will give you the true authentic taste
of Mexico. Crème fraiche has a sour
taste similar to sour cream and is a great
condiment for the following recipes. Flank
steak, pork loin, fish, and shrimp would
all be great substitutes for chicken or
skirt steak.

3.5 oz. (1
jar) Raptor Carne & Pollo Asada Rub
2 lbs. Skirt Steak or Chicken
