Ingredients

  • 1 lb flank steak
  • 2 tbsp olive oil
  • 3 tbsp lime juice
  • 2 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1 tsp cumin
  • 1 tsp chili powder
  • 1/2 tsp salt
  • 1/2 tsp black pepper
  • 8 small corn tortillas
  • 1 cup diced tomatoes
  • 1 cup shredded lettuce
  • 1/2 cup diced red onion
  • 1/2 cup chopped cilantro
  • 1 avocado, sliced
  • Lime wedges for serving

Instructions

  1. 1

    In a medium bowl, combine olive oil, lime juice, minced garlic, cumin, chili powder, salt, and black pepper to create the marinade.

  2. 2

    Place flank steak in a shallow dish or resealable plastic bag and pour the marinade over it. Make sure the steak is well-coated. Marinate for at least 30 minutes or up to 2 hours in the refrigerator.

  3. 3

    Preheat a grill or grill pan over medium-high heat. Remove the steak from the marinade and let any excess drip off.

  4. 4

    Grill the steak for about 5-7 minutes on each side, or until it reaches your desired level of doneness. Transfer to a cutting board and let it rest for 5 minutes.

  5. 5

    Meanwhile, warm the corn tortillas on the grill for about 30 seconds on each side until soft and pliable.

  6. 6

    Slice the grilled steak into thin strips against the grain.

  7. 7

    To assemble the tacos, place a few slices of steak on each tortilla. Top with diced tomatoes, lettuce, red onion, cilantro, and avocado slices.

  8. 8

    Serve the tacos with lime wedges on the side for squeezing over the top. Enjoy!
