Taco Ingredients

Method

Cooking Instructions

  1. 1

    Marinate the Steak

    In a bowl, combine olive oil, lime juice, minced garlic, cumin, chili powder, salt, and black pepper. Add the flank steak, ensuring it's well-coated. Cover and refrigerate for at least 1 hour, preferably overnight.

  2. 2

    Grill the Steak

    Preheat the grill to medium-high heat. Remove the steak from the marinade and grill for about 6-8 minutes per side, or until it reaches your desired doneness. Let it rest for 5 minutes before slicing.

  3. 3

    Prepare the Tacos

    While the steak is resting, warm the corn tortillas on the grill or in a skillet until pliable. Slice the grilled steak into thin strips.

  4. 4

    Assemble the Tacos

    To each tortilla, add sliced steak, chopped cilantro, diced onion, salsa, and avocado slices. Serve immediately.
