Baked Stuffed Avocados with Steak

Avocado halves that are stuffed with delicious carne asada marinated steak and baked with the most delicious toppings! Baked Avocados with cheese and steak are one of my favorite ways to go low-carb!

Now that it's a new year, add this healthy recipe to your weekly rotation, and taco Tuesday won't be boring ever again!

Baked avocados in the oven aren't the only way to enjoy them! I love avocado slices air-fried with some breading, they are so delicious!

Best Carne Asada Seasoning

I loveeee carne asada flavor. The seasonings come together in the best, tangy marinade that I knew would be perfect for these stuffed baked avocados with shaved beef.

Ingredients

  • soy sauce
  • olive oil
  • lime juice
  • orange juice
  • cumin
  • cilantro
  • fresh garlic
  • jalapeno
  • salt and pepper

Mix those all together to create the best carne asada seasoning for these avocado tacos!

Traditional Carne Asada

Traditional carne asada is made with skirt steak or flank steak that is marinated and grilled.

That is a delicious way to do it! You could even marinate a whole flank steak, slice, and stuff the avocados with it.

But for this quick version, I picked up some shaved steak, which is very thinly cut. It marinates quicker and cooks so fast!

Other Ways To Use Shaved Steak

Ever since finding shaved steak at the store, I love using it for a quick-cooking weeknight meal. Here are a couple more suggestions for it!

Carne Asada Nachos

Marinate the shaved steak and top a pile of nachos with it! Perfect slices of steak in every bite of nachos.

Top with some garden fresh salsa and sour cream!

Carne Asada Quesadilla

Why not take the marinated carne asada steak and turn it into carne asada quesadillas?! Delicious steak quesadillas with cheese are always a crowd-pleaser.

Are Baked Avocados Good?

Cooked avocado may seem a little odd, typically I enjoy them cold or room temperature. But by cooking the avocado, it turns almost buttery!

The soft, creamy texture of the avocado is delicious paired with lots of flavors. You could stuff them with an egg, ground beef, or even chicken!

Baked avocados in the oven aren't the only way to enjoy them! I love avocado slices air-fried with some breading, they are so delicious!

Toppings For Baked Stuffed Avocados

When topping these steak-stuffed avocados, I went with "less is more."

The carne asada marinated beef is so flavorful, I didn't want to overpower it! So for the toppings, I went lighter...

  • Corn Salsa - homemade and a Chipolte copy-cat recipe for their corn salsa!
  • Chopped tomatoes
  • Shredded cheese
  • Lime juice
  • Cilantro

These flavors are mild but delicious and compliment the carne asada so well.

Ingredients

  • 1 lb shaved beef

Marinade Ingredients

  • 1/4 cup soy sauce
  • 1/4 cup olive oil
  • 1/4 cup lime juice
  • 3 tablespoons orange juice
  • 1 tablespoon cumin
  • 1/2 cup chopped cilantro
  • 2 heads fresh garlic
  • 1/2 a jalapeno diced

Instructions

  • In a medium mixing bowl combine the marinade ingredients and whisk well.
  • Place your shaved steak in a shallow bowl or baking dish and pour the marinade over the top.
  • Cover and place in the fridge for a minimum of 30 minutes.
  • After the marinating is done, preheat the oven to 425 degrees.
  • In a skillet, heat 1 tablespoon olive oil over medium high heat and add the steak (drain the marinade from the seak first).
  • Begin to brown the steak, it won't take very long. Maybe 5-7 minutes until you see no more pink. Turn off the heat.
  • Cut your avocaods in half and remove the pit. Place them in a baking dish.
  • Sprinkle the avocado halves with salt and pepper, add equal amounts of shredded cheese to each avocaod.
