Ingredients
- 1 lb flank steak or skirt steak
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 1 lime, juiced
- 3 cloves garlic, minced
- 1 teaspoon ground cumin
- 1 teaspoon chili powder
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 1/2 teaspoon black pepper
- 8 small corn tortillas
- Fresh cilantro, chopped for garnish
- Diced onions, for topping
- Lime wedges, for serving
Instructions
- Marinate the Steak: In a bowl, whisk together olive oil, lime juice, garlic, cumin, chili powder, salt, and pepper. Add the steak and coat well. Let it marinate for at least 30 minutes or up to 2 hours in the refrigerator.
- Cook the Steak: Preheat a grill or skillet over medium-high heat. Remove the steak from the marinade and cook for 4-5 minutes on each side for medium-rare, or until desired doneness. Let it rest for 5 minutes before slicing.
- Prepare the Tortillas: While the steak is resting, warm the corn tortillas on the grill or in a skillet for about 30 seconds on each side until pliable.
- Assemble the Tacos: Slice the steak thinly against the grain. Place a few slices on each tortilla, top with chopped onions and cilantro, and serve with lime wedges.
