Street Tacos De Carne Asada

Instructions:

  1. In a bowl, whisk together olive oil, garlic, lime juice, soy sauce, chili powder, cumin, salt, and black pepper.
  2. Add sliced steak and toss to coat evenly. Marinate for at least 30 minutes, or up to 4 hours for deeper flavor.
  3. Heat a large skillet or grill pan over high heat until very hot. Cook steak for 3 to 5 minutes, stirring occasionally, until browned and slightly crispy on the edges.
  4. Warm corn tortillas on a dry griddle or skillet until soft and lightly charred.
  5. Finely chop the cooked steak for authentic street-style texture.
  6. Assemble tacos by adding steak to each tortilla. Top with diced onion, chopped cilantro, and a squeeze of fresh lime.
  7. Serve immediately with salsa and grilled jalapeños on the side.

Variations :

  • Add a splash of orange juice to the marinade for subtle sweetness.
  • Grill the steak whole, then slice thinly against the grain for maximum tenderness.
  • Top with crumbled queso fresco for a mild, salty finish.

Tips :

  • Cook the steak quickly over high heat to prevent it from becoming tough.
  • Always slice or chop against the grain for the most tender bite.
  • Double up corn tortillas for durability and authentic taco stand presentation.
