Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 pound skirt steak
- 2 tablespoons chipotle peppers in adobo sauce
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 3 tablespoons fresh lime juice
- 3 cloves garlic cloves
- 1 teaspoon ground cumin
- 1 teaspoon dried oregano
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 0.5 teaspoon black pepper
- 8 corn tortillas
- 1 red onion
- 0.5 cup fresh cilantro
- 1 avocado
- 1 fresh lime wedges
Instructions
In a blender or food processor, combine the chipotle peppers in adobo sauce, olive oil, lime juice, garlic cloves, cumin, oregano, salt, and black pepper. Blend until smooth.
Place the skirt steak in a shallow dish or a resealable plastic bag. Pour the marinade over the steak, ensuring it's evenly coated. Marinate for at least 30 minutes, or up to 8 hours in the refrigerator for more intense flavor.
Preheat a grill or a skillet over medium-high heat. Remove the steak from the marinade and let any excess drip off.
Grill the steak for about 4-5 minutes on each side, or until it reaches your desired level of doneness. Remove from the grill and let it rest for 5 minutes.
While the steak is resting, warm the corn tortillas in a dry skillet over medium heat until pliable, about 1 minute on each side.
Thinly slice the red onion and dice the avocado. Chop the fresh cilantro finely.
Slice the steak against the grain into thin strips.
Assemble the tacos by placing a few slices of steak onto each tortilla. Top with red onion, avocado, chopped cilantro, and a squeeze of fresh lime juice.
Serve immediately and enjoy your Dairy-Free Chipotle Steak Tacos with extra lime wedges on the side.
