# How to Prepare:
01 - In a bowl, whisk together lime juice, orange juice, olive oil, cilantro, garlic, soy sauce, cumin, chili powder, smoked paprika, salt, and pepper.
02 - Place the steak in a large resealable bag or shallow dish, pour marinade over steak, and marinate in the refrigerator for at least 30 minutes (up to 4 hours for best flavor).
03 - Preheat grill or grill pan to medium-high heat. Remove steak from marinade and pat dry with paper towels. Grill for 4–6 minutes per side, until nicely charred and desired doneness is reached.
04 - Transfer steak to a cutting board, let rest 5 minutes, then slice thinly against the grain, and chop into bite-size pieces.
05 - Warm corn tortillas on the grill or a skillet until soft and slightly charred, about 30 seconds per side.
06 - Arrange all taco bar toppings and warm tortillas in bowls and platters.
07 - Let guests assemble their own tacos, starting with carne asada and layering on their favorite toppings.
