Marinate the steak in the carne asada marinade for 6-48 hours, if desired. It's an amazing marinade that is very versatile and full of flavor!
Prepare rice according to the package instructions, if desired.
Cook the French's crunchy onions, if desired, in a small skillet for a few minutes until golden.
Cook the onions and mushrooms by heating the olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Add the onions and mushrooms and cook, stirring often, until lightly caramelized and golden brown, about 15-20 minutes. Add the minced garlic, sea salt, and freshly cracked black pepper, then stir frequently for 45 seconds. Remove from heat and set aside.
Grill the flank steak to your liking, then set it aside to rest for at least five minutes before slicing it against the grain.
Meanwhile, cook the asparagus and tomatoes while the steak is resting.
Heat the olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Add the asparagus and tomatoes and cook, stirring occasionally, for 3-4 minutes or until tender.
Add the garlic and crushed red pepper flakes and cook, stirring constantly, for 1 minute. Season the veggies with sea salt and cracked pepper. Enjoy!
Serve the steak topped with the caramelized onions and mushrooms, along with the prepared rice topped with crunchy onions, and asparagus & tomatoes. Enjoy.
