Cooking Instructions

  1. 1

    Prepare the Steak

    In a bowl, combine the olive oil, salt, and black pepper. Add the steak and marinate for at least 30 minutes.

  2. 2

    Grill the Steak

    Preheat a grill or grill pan over medium-high heat. Grill the marinated steak for about 5-7 minutes on each side for medium-rare, or until your desired doneness is reached. Remove from heat and let it rest for a few minutes.

  3. 3

    Cook the Onions

    While the steak is resting, slice the onion into thin strips. In the same grill or pan, add a little olive oil and sauté the onions until they are soft and slightly caramelized, about 5 minutes.

  4. 4

    Assemble the Tacos

    Slice the grilled steak against the grain into thin strips. Warm the corn tortillas on the grill for about 30 seconds on each side. To assemble, place a few slices of steak on each tortilla, top with sautéed onions, and sprinkle with fresh cilantro. Squeeze lime juice over the top before serving.
