A delightful twist on the classic taqueria-style tacos, featuring marinated grilled steak and a vibrant homemade salsa.
Combine the soy sauce, vinegar, garlic powder, chili powder, cumin, paprika, oregano, and the juice of two limes in a mixing bowl.
Mixing the marinade thoroughly ensures even flavor distribution.
Place the flank steak in a shallow dish and pour the marinade over it, ensuring the steak is well coated. Cover and refrigerate for at least 1 hour.
Marinating the steak longer enhances the flavor.
Preheat the grill to medium-high heat. Grill the steak for about 4-5 minutes per side or until it reaches your desired doneness.
Let the steak rest for 5 minutes before slicing to retain juices.
Roast the tomatoes, jalapeño, and onion on the grill until charred. Blend them with salt and pepper to create a smooth salsa.
Grilling the vegetables adds a smoky flavor to the salsa.
Warm the tortillas on the grill for about 30 seconds per side.
Warming the tortillas makes them pliable and enhances their flavor.
Slice the steak thinly against the grain. Assemble the tacos by placing steak slices on the tortillas, topping with salsa, Cotija cheese, and cilantro.
Serving the tacos immediately ensures the best taste and texture.
