A delightful twist on classic steak tacos, featuring a flavorful marinade, lime-pickled onions, and roasted peppers.
Combine the garlic, salt, cilantro, oregano, black pepper, and olive oil in a mixing bowl to create the marinade.
Using fresh herbs enhances the flavor of the marinade.
Pierce the steak with a fork and coat it with the marinade. Cover and refrigerate overnight.
Marinating overnight allows the flavors to deeply penetrate the steak.
Mix the red onion, lime juice, and salt in a bowl. Let sit for at least 3 hours.
Pickling the onions in advance enhances their tangy flavor.
Preheat the grill to medium-high heat. Remove the steak from the marinade and pat dry.
Patting the steak dry ensures a good sear on the grill.
Grill the steak to your desired doneness, then let it rest for 5 minutes.
Resting the steak allows the juices to redistribute, keeping it tender.
Heat the tortillas in a skillet or directly on the grill until pliable.
Warming the tortillas makes them easier to fold and prevents cracking.
Slice the steak against the grain into thin strips.
Slicing against the grain ensures tender pieces of steak.
Assemble the tacos by placing steak, cheese, roasted peppers, and pickled onions in each tortilla.
Layering the ingredients evenly ensures a balanced bite.
Serve the tacos with your favorite salsa or guacamole.
Adding a side of salsa or guacamole enhances the overall flavor.
