1
Cooking the Steak or Shredded Pork
If using steak, season it with salt, pepper, cumin, and chili powder. Grill or pan-sear the steak over medium-high heat for about 6-8 minutes per side, or until it reaches your desired doneness. If using shredded pork, you can either use cooked pulled pork or cook pork shoulder in a slow cooker with the same seasonings on low for 8 hours or high for 4 hours until tender.
2
Rest and Slice
Once the steak is cooked, let it rest for 5 minutes before slicing it thinly against the grain. If using shredded pork, shred it with two forks and mix with the cooking juices.

3
Chop the Red Onions
Peel and finely chop the red onion to your desired size.
4
Chop the Cilantro
Wash the cilantro, remove the thick stems, and chop the leaves coarsely.

5
Heating the Tortillas
In a dry skillet over medium heat, warm the corn tortillas for about 30 seconds on each side, or until they are pliable and slightly toasted.

6
Building the Tacos
Take a warm tortilla and fill it with your choice of steak or shredded pork. Top it with chopped red onions and cilantro. Add extra salt or pepper to taste if desired.
