Provided by Food Network Kitchen

Time 1h55m

Yield 4 to 6 servings

Number Of Ingredients 13

1 1/2 teaspoons cumin seeds
2 cloves garlic
4 serrano chile peppers, halved (remove seeds for less heat)
3 tablespoons vegetable oil, plus more for the grill
Juice of 4 limes (about 1/3 cup)
2 tablespoons packed light brown sugar
Kosher salt and freshly ground pepper
2 pounds skirt steak, cut in half
1/2 small white onion, diced
3 tomatillos (in their husks)
3/4 cup fresh cilantro
16 corn tortillas
Grated Cotija cheese and/or thinly sliced radishes, for topping

Steps:

  • Heat a large cast-iron skillet over medium-high heat. Add the cumin seeds and toast, stirring occasionally, about 1 minute; transfer to a bowl. Add the garlic and chiles to the skillet. Cook, turning occasionally, until soft and blackened in spots, about 5 minutes. Transfer to a food processor and let cool. Add the cumin seeds, vegetable oil, 1/4 cup lime juice and the brown sugar and puree until smooth. Season with 1 1/2 teaspoons salt and a few grinds of pepper. Transfer to a resealable plastic bag and add the steak, shaking well to coat. Refrigerate, 1 to 4 hours.
  • Soak the onion in a bowl of cold water. Meanwhile, wipe out the skillet and heat over high heat. Cook the tomatillos, turning, until well charred, about 7 minutes. Transfer to a plate and let cool. Remove the charred husks and roughly chop the flesh. Drain the onion. Wipe out the food processor; add the tomatillos, onion, cilantro and the remaining 1 to 2 tablespoons lime juice and puree until smooth. Season with 3/4 teaspoon salt and a few grinds of pepper; set aside.
  • Meanwhile, bring the steak to room temperature, about 30 minutes. Preheat a grill to high. Remove the steak from the marinade and shake off any excess. Lightly oil the grill, then grill the steak until charred on the bottom, about 5 minutes. Flip and cook until charred on the other side, 1 to 3 more minutes. Transfer to a cutting board and let rest 10 minutes.
  • Warm the tortillas on the grill. Thinly slice the steak against the grain. Double up the tortillas and fill with the steak and tomatillo salsa. Top with cheese and radishes.

Provided by Martha Stewart

Categories     Food & Cooking     Ingredients     Meat & Poultry     Beef Recipes

Time 25m

Number Of Ingredients 10

1 avocado, halved, pitted, peeled, and cut into 3/4-inch cubes
6 large red radishes, ends trimmed, halved, thinly sliced
1/4 cup chopped cilantro
1 tablespoon chopped pickled jalapeno chile
2 teaspoons freshly squeezed lime juice plus 1 lime, cut into 8 wedges, for garnish (optional)
1 teaspoon olive oil
Coarse salt and ground pepper
1 pound skirt steak, cut crosswise into 3 pieces
1 tablespoon ground cumin
8 corn tortillas (6-inch)

Steps:

  • Heat broiler, with rack 4 inches from heat. Line a rimmed baking sheet with aluminum foil; set aside. In a medium bowl, gently stir together avocado, radishes, cilantro, jalapeno, lime juice, and oil; season with salt. Cover with plastic wrap, pressing it directly against surface of salsa (to prevent discoloring); set aside.
  • Arrange steak on prepared baking sheet. Rub both sides with cumin; season generously with salt and pepper. Broil without turning until well browned, 6 to 8 minutes for medium-rare. Transfer steak to a cutting board; tent with foil, and let rest 5 minutes.
  • While the steak is broiling, stack and wrap tortillas in a dampened kitchen towel; microwave until hot and pliable, 1 to 2 minutes. (Alternatively, wrap in foil, and warm in oven in lower third, 5 minutes.)
  • Cut steak crosswise into 2-inch-wide pieces; slice thinly on the diagonal. Dividing evenly, place beef on tortillas; top with salsa. Serve with lime wedges, if desired.

Tips:

  • For the best results, use high-quality flank steak. Look for meat that is deep red in color and has good marbling.
  • Be sure to slice the steak against the grain for more tender tacos.
  • If you don't have a grill, you can cook the steak in a grill pan or skillet over medium-high heat.
  • Don't overcook the steak! It should be cooked to medium-rare or medium for the best flavor and texture.
  • While the steak is cooking, make the cilantro-radish salsa. This salsa is a great way to add freshness and flavor to the tacos.
  • To assemble the tacos, simply place a few slices of steak, some salsa, and your favorite taco toppings on a warm tortilla.

Conclusion:

Steak tacos are a delicious and easy-to-make meal that are perfect for any occasion. Whether you're having a party or just a casual dinner, these tacos are sure to be a hit. So next time you're looking for a quick and tasty recipe, give these steak tacos a try. You won't be disappointed!
