Taco Ingredients

Method

Cooking Instructions

1

Prepare the Marinade

In a bowl, mix the olive oil, lime juice, garlic powder, ground cumin, salt, and black pepper to create a marinade.

2

Marinate the Steak

Place the flank steak in a shallow dish and pour the marinade over it. Ensure the steak is well-coated. Cover and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes.

3

Cook the Steak

Preheat a grill or skillet over medium-high heat. Remove the steak from the marinade and grill for about 5-7 minutes on each side, or until it reaches the desired level of doneness. Let rest for 5 minutes before slicing.

4

Warm the Tortillas

While the steak is resting, warm the corn tortillas on the grill or in a dry skillet for about 30 seconds on each side until soft and pliable.

5

Assemble the Tacos

Slice the grilled steak into thin strips. On each tortilla, layer some shredded lettuce, diced tomatoes, and sliced steak. Top with shredded cheese, sour cream, and salsa.

6

Serve

Serve the tacos immediately, allowing kids to customize with additional toppings if desired.
