Categories     Dinner

Time 30m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 15

½ lb top sirloin steak
pico de gallo, or salsa of your choice
4 corn tortillas
1 ripe avocado
⅓ cup fresh cilantro
3 tablespoons lime juice
⅔ cup water
salt, to taste
1 ½ teaspoons chili powder
1 teaspoon ground cumin
1 teaspoon dried oregano
½ teaspoon salt
½ teaspoon black pepper
1 clove garlic, minced
2 tablespoons lime juice, or 1 lime

Steps:

  • Place the avocado, cilantro, lime juice, water, and salt in a blender or food processor. Blend until smooth and set aside.
  • In a small bowl, combine the chili powder, cumin, oregano, salt, pepper, garlic, and lime juice.
  • Rub the chili lime rub all over the steak in a thin, even layer.
  • Grill the steak on either a grill or stove-top grill pan. To get the "X" grill marks, sear the steak for 1 minute, then adjust about 90 degrees and grill for another minute. Flip the steak when you've achieved desired grill marks and repeat the process on the other side.
  • Allow the steak to rest for 5-10 minutes once taken off the heat.
  • Slice the steak thinly, against the grain of the meat.
  • Prepare the tacos by topping the corn tortillas with a few strips of meat, salsa, the avocado cilantro lime sauce, and cilantro, and serve.
  • Enjoy!

HANGER STEAK TACOS WITH CILANTRO-LIME CREMA AND CHARRED LIMES



Hanger Steak Tacos with Cilantro-Lime Crema and Charred Limes image

Provided by Elena Besser

Categories     main-dish

Time 30m

Yield 4 to 6 servings

Number Of Ingredients 10

1 1/2 pounds hanger steak, cut into 4 pieces, center membrane removed
1 teaspoon crushed red chile flakes
Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
3 tablespoons olive oil
2 limes, halved
2 bunches fresh cilantro
1 cup sour cream
1 clove garlic
12 corn tortillas
1 teaspoon chile-lime seasoning, such as Tajin, optional

Steps:

  • Heat a large cast-iron skillet over medium-high heat. Sprinkle the steaks with the chile flakes and some salt and pepper and coat with 2 tablespoons of the olive oil. When the skillet starts to smoke, add the steaks, raise the heat slightly and cook, rotating the steaks every 2 to 3 minutes to make sure they have an even char on all sides, 10 to 12 minutes total. Set the steaks aside, uncovered, to rest. This allows all the juices to redistribute into the steak.
  • Wipe out the skillet and set it over medium-high heat. Add 2 of the lime halves to the skillet cut-side down and cook until heavily charred, 3 to 5 minutes. Set aside for serving.
  • Combine 1 bunch of the cilantro, the juice of the remaining lime halves, some salt and pepper and remaining 1 tablespoon olive oil in a food processor and process until a paste forms.
  • Add the sour cream to a medium bowl and grate in the garlic with a rasp grater. Gently fold in the cilantro paste. Set aside.
  • Over an open flame, heat the tortillas 3 at a time for 20 to 30 seconds on each side.
  • Slice the steak against the grain. Spread the sour cream mixture on a wide platter and arrange the sliced steak on top. Garnish with the grilled lime halves and remaining cilantro and sprinkle with the chile-lime seasoning if using. Serve with the tortillas.

ADOBO LIME STEAK TACOS
