Tacos

Cilantro Rice

Method

Tacos

  1. 1

    Marinate the Skirt Steak

    In a bowl, season the skirt steak with salt, pepper, and your choice of marinade. Let it marinate for at least 30 minutes.

  2. 2

    Cook the Steak

    Heat a grill or skillet over medium-high heat. Cook the marinated skirt steak for about 4-5 minutes on each side, or until it reaches your desired doneness. Remove from heat and let rest for 5 minutes before slicing.

  3. 3

    Prepare the Onion

    While the steak is resting, finely chop the white onion.

  4. 4

    Assemble the Tacos

    Warm the flour tortillas in a skillet or microwave. Slice the rested steak against the grain and load it onto the tortillas. Top with chopped onion, cilantro, and drizzle with poblano sauce.

Cilantro Rice

  1. 5

    Cook the Rice

    In a medium saucepan, bring 2 cups of water to a boil. Add 1 cup of long grain rice and a pinch of salt. Reduce heat to low, cover, and simmer for 18-20 minutes until the rice is cooked and water is absorbed.

  2. 6

    Flavor the Rice

    Once the rice is cooked, fluff it with a fork and stir in the fresh cilantro and lime juice. Adjust the salt to taste.
