Marcos Tacos* (local) Recipe

Prepare the Sirloin

Season the Lazy Acre Sirloin with salt and black pepper to taste. Heat a grill or skillet over medium-high heat, and sear the sirloin for about 4-5 minutes on each side or until it reaches your desired level of doneness. Remove from heat and let it rest for 5 minutes before slicing.

Cook the Bacon

In the same skillet, add the slices of smoked bacon and cook over medium heat until crispy, about 5-7 minutes. Remove and place on a paper towel to drain excess grease.

Sauté the Onion

Chop the medium onion finely. In the skillet with the bacon drippings, sauté the onions over medium heat until they are translucent and slightly caramelized, about 3-4 minutes.

Prepare the Toppings

Rinse the fresh cilantro under cold water, shake off excess moisture, and chop it coarsely. Cut the lime into wedges for serving.

Warm the Tortillas

In a dry skillet or on the grill, warm the corn tortillas for about 30 seconds on each side until pliable.

Assemble the Tacos

On each warmed tortilla, layer sliced sirloin, crispy bacon, sautéed onions, fresh cilantro, a spoonful of spicy salsa roja, and a spoonful of salsa verde. Squeeze fresh lime juice over the top.

Serve

Serve the tacos immediately with extra lime wedges and salsa on the side.
