Ingredients

  • Corn tortillas - 4 pieces
  • Guava paste - 50 grams
  • Pineapple chunks - 100 grams
  • Onion - 1 medium, diced

  • Olive oil - 1 tablespoon
  • Cumin - 1 teaspoon
  • Salt - to taste

Steps

  1. Cut the beef flank steak into thin strips and season with salt, black pepper, and cumin.
  2. In a skillet, heat olive oil over medium heat. Add the seasoned beef and cook until browned and cooked through, about 7-10 minutes. Remove from skillet and set aside.

  5. Return the cooked beef to the skillet and mix well with the guava and pineapple sauce. Cook for an additional 2-3 minutes to heat through.
  6. Warm the corn tortillas in a separate pan or microwave until pliable.
  7. Assemble the tacos by placing a portion of the beef and sauce mixture on each tortilla. Top with chopped cilantro.
  8. Serve with lime wedges on the side for squeezing over the tacos.
