Method

Taco Preparation

1

Prepare the Steak

Start by trimming any excess fat from the sirloin steak. Cut the steak into thin strips, about 1/4 inch thick.

2

Season the Steak

In a bowl, combine the olive oil, garlic powder, cumin, chili powder, salt, and black pepper. Add the steak strips to the bowl and toss until evenly coated with the seasoning mixture. Let it marinate for at least 15 minutes to enhance the flavors.

3

Cook the Steak

Heat a skillet over medium-high heat. Once hot, add the marinated steak strips in a single layer. Cook for about 2-3 minutes on each side or until the steak is browned and cooked to your desired doneness. Remove from heat and let it rest for a few minutes before slicing.

4

Warm the Tortillas

In the same skillet or on a separate pan, warm the corn tortillas over medium heat for about 30 seconds on each side, or until they are pliable and slightly toasted.

5

Assemble the Tacos

Place a portion of the cooked steak on each warmed tortilla. Add your choice of toppings such as diced onions, cilantro, salsa, or avocado if desired. Serve immediately.
