Ingredients:
- 1 pound flank steak or skirt steak
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 2 cloves garlic, minced
- 1 teaspoon ground cumin
- 1 teaspoon chili powder
- 1/2 teaspoon smoked paprika
- Salt and pepper to taste
- 8 small flour or corn tortillas
- 1 cup shredded lettuce
- 1/2 cup diced tomatoes
- 1/2 cup sliced red onions
- 1 avocado, sliced
- 1/4 cup sour cream
- 1/4 cup salsa
- Fresh cilantro leaves for garnish
- Lime wedges for serving
Instructions:
- Marinate the steak: In a small bowl, mix together the olive oil, minced garlic, ground cumin, chili powder, smoked paprika, salt, and pepper. Rub this mixture all over the steak. Let the steak marinate for at least 30 minutes at room temperature or up to 2 hours in the refrigerator.
- Cook the steak: Heat a grill or a large skillet over medium-high heat. Once hot, add the steak and cook for 4-5 minutes per side for medium-rare, or until cooked to your desired level of doneness. Remove the steak from the heat and let it rest for 5 minutes before slicing thinly against the grain.
- Prepare the tortillas: While the steak is resting, warm the tortillas on the grill or in a dry skillet until soft and pliable.
- Assemble the tortillas: Place a few slices of steak onto each tortilla. Top with shredded lettuce, diced tomatoes, sliced red onions, avocado slices, and a dollop of sour cream and salsa. Garnish with fresh cilantro leaves.
- Serve: Serve the steak tortillas with lime wedges on the side for squeezing over the top.
