Taco Ingredients

Method

Preparation

  1. 1

    Prepare the Salsa

    Preheat the oven to 425°F (220°C). Place the tomatillos and onion on a baking sheet and roast for 15-20 minutes until charred. Blend with chipotle peppers, garlic, cilantro, lime juice, and salt until smooth.

  2. 2

    Make the Pico de Gallo

    In a bowl, combine diced tomatoes, finely chopped onion, chopped cilantro, lime juice, and salt. Mix well and set aside.

  3. 3

    Cook the Steak

    Season the flank steak with olive oil, cumin, salt, and black pepper. Grill or pan-sear over medium-high heat for about 5-6 minutes per side for medium-rare. Let it rest, then slice thinly against the grain.

  4. 4

    Assemble the Tacos

    Warm the corn tortillas over a skillet. Fill each tortilla with sliced steak, top with roasted tomatillo-chipotle salsa and pico de gallo.
