Method

Preparing the Bistec

  1. 1

    Marinate the Beef

    In a bowl, combine the minced garlic, lime juice, olive oil, salt, black pepper, and cumin. Mix well and add the beef steak, ensuring it is well coated. Let it marinate for at least 30 minutes, preferably in the refrigerator.

  2. 2

    Cook the Beef

    Heat a skillet or grill over medium-high heat. Once hot, add the marinated beef steak. Cook for about 4-5 minutes on each side for medium rare, or longer if you prefer it more done. Remove from heat and let it rest for a few minutes before slicing.

  3. 3

    Slice the Beef

    After resting, slice the beef steak against the grain into thin strips.

Assembling the Tacos

  1. 4

    Warm the Tortillas

    In a dry skillet, warm the corn tortillas over medium heat for about 30 seconds on each side, until pliable.

  2. 5

    Assemble the Tacos

    Place the sliced beef on each tortilla. Top with diced onions, chopped cilantro, avocado slices, and drizzle with salsa or hot sauce to taste.

  3. 6

    Serve

    Serve the tacos warm, with extra lime wedges and salsa on the side if desired.
