Ingredients
- Skirt steak - 300 grams
- Corn tortillas - 4 pieces
- Olive oil - 1 tablespoon
- Garlic - 2 cloves, minced
- Lime - 1, juiced
- Cilantro - 30 grams, chopped
- Red onion - 50 grams, diced
- Avocado - 1 medium, sliced
- Salt - 1 teaspoon
- Black pepper - 1/2 teaspoon
- Chili powder - 1/2 teaspoon
- Paprika - 1/2 teaspoon
Steps
- In a bowl, combine the minced garlic, lime juice, olive oil, chili powder, paprika, salt, and black pepper to create a marinade.
- Add the skirt steak to the marinade, ensuring it is well coated. Let it marinate for at least 15 minutes.
- While the steak is marinating, prepare the toppings by dicing the red onion, slicing the avocado, and chopping the cilantro.
- Heat a grill or skillet over medium-high heat. Once hot, add the marinated steak and cook for about 4-5 minutes on each side for medium rare, or until desired doneness.
- Remove the steak from the heat and let it rest for a few minutes before slicing it into thin strips.
- While the steak is resting, warm the corn tortillas in a dry skillet for about 30 seconds on each side until pliable.
- Assemble the tacos by placing sliced steak on each tortilla, then topping with diced red onion, avocado slices, and chopped cilantro.
- Serve immediately with lime wedges on the side.
