1. In a large ziploc bag, combine the adobo sauce, (chipotle peppers too for extra spice), lime juice, avocado oil, brown sugar, finely chopped cilantro, minced garlic, chili powder, salt and pepper.
2. Mix and then add the meat. You can use pre-sliced carne asada, flank steak, skirt steak, sirloin steak or tenderloin. They're all good options. You can use the pre-sliced meat or slice your own thinly.
3. The best way to cook this recipe is on the stove-top. Drizzle a little olive oil or avocdo oil in a large non-stick saucepan (a cast iron pan or a grill pan works great too) and sear the meat, on medium-high heat, on both sides. The amount of time will depend on how thick your meat is. I prefer the meat to be cooked medium rare to medium -- a little pink in the middle. Sear the meat for 2-3 minutes per side making sure you salt and pepper both sides as it cooks.
4. Let me meat sit on a plate after it's cooked for about 5 minutes. This way it will let the juices redistribute in the meat. Slice the meat and then toss it in the meat juices from the platter.
