Method

Steak Preparation

1

Marinate the Steak

In a medium bowl, combine olive oil, minced garlic, cumin, chili powder, salt, and black pepper. Mix well. Add the flank steak and coat it evenly with the marinade. Cover and let it marinate in the refrigerator for at least 30 minutes, or up to 2 hours for more flavor.

2

Cook the Steak

Preheat a grill or grill pan over medium-high heat. Remove the steak from the marinade and discard any leftover marinade. Grill the steak for about 5-7 minutes on each side for medium-rare, or until cooked to your desired doneness. Remove from the grill and let it rest for 5 minutes before slicing.

3

Slice the Steak

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

4

Prepare the Tortillas

While the steak is resting, warm the corn tortillas in a dry skillet over medium heat for about 30 seconds on each side until pliable.

5

Assemble the Tacos

On each tortilla, layer slices of the grilled steak. Top with diced red onion, chopped cilantro, slices of avocado, a dollop of sour cream, and a spoonful of salsa. Squeeze fresh lime juice over the top for added flavor.

6

Serve

Serve immediately while warm, and enjoy your steak tacos!
