Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 pound Flank steak
- 2 tablespoons Olive oil
- 2 tablespoons Fresh lime juice
- 1 teaspoon Ground cumin
- 0.5 teaspoon Ground black pepper
- 0.5 teaspoon Garlic powder
- 1 teaspoon Chili powder
- 1 large Red bell pepper, thinly sliced
- 1 large Green bell pepper, thinly sliced
- 1 medium Yellow onion, thinly sliced
- 12 small Corn tortillas
- 0.25 cup Fresh cilantro, chopped
- 1 large Avocado, sliced
- 4 Lime wedges
Instructions
In a large mixing bowl, whisk together olive oil, lime juice, ground cumin, black pepper, garlic powder, and chili powder to create the marinade.
Place the flank steak in a shallow dish and pour the marinade over it, turning to coat evenly. Cover and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes, or up to 2 hours for maximum flavor.
Heat a large skillet or grill pan over medium-high heat. Add the marinated steak and cook for 4-5 minutes per side for medium-rare, or adjust the cooking time to your preference.
Remove the steak from the heat and let it rest on a cutting board for 5 minutes before slicing thinly against the grain.
In the same skillet, add the sliced bell peppers and onion. Sauté for about 5-7 minutes until the vegetables are tender-crisp.
While vegetables are cooking, warm the corn tortillas in a dry skillet over medium heat for about 30 seconds on each side until pliable.
Assemble the tacos by placing slices of steak on each tortilla, topped with sautéed peppers and onions.
Garnish each taco with sliced avocado, fresh cilantro, and a squeeze of lime juice.
Serve warm and enjoy!
