2 tablespoons tequila (I would say it is not optional) (optional)
2 tablespoons ground red chili pepper (Ancho or New Mexico)
1 cup chopped fresh cilantro
1 tablespoon chopped fresh oregano or 1 1/2 teaspoons dried oregano
2 teaspoons salt
1 tablespoon fresh coarse ground black pepper
1/4 cup olive oil or 1/4 cup vegetable oil
24 corn tortillas (handmade or the freshest you can find)
1 lb ca monterey jack cheese (mild white cheese) or 1 lb wisconsin muenster cheese, cut into strips 1/4 x 1 x 3 to 4 inches (mild white cheese)
6 fire roasted peeled and seeded poblano chiles, sliced or 6 canned Ortega green chilies
guacamole
salsa, of your choice
1 large red onion, thinly sliced
1/4 cup fresh lime juice
1 tablespoon olive oil
1/2 teaspoon salt
2 tablespoons chopped fresh cilantro
1 teaspoon chopped fresh oregano or 1/2 teaspoon dried oregano

Steps:

  • Mix all marinade ingredients.
  • Pierce the steaks all over, on both sides.
  • Pour over marinade, cover with plastic wrap and refrigerate over night.
  • Lime pickled red onions: Mix all the ingredients and let marinate for at least 3 hours at room temperature.
  • Will keep for up to 4 days in the fridge.
  • About an hour before grilling the meat remove the steaks from the refrigerator.
  • Preheat the oven to 300 degrees.
  • Remove meat from marinade and pat dry with paper towels.
  • Season lightly with salt and pepper.
  • Cook over hot coals with mesquite until done to your liking.
  • Set the meat aside and cover loosely with foil to keep warm.
  • Briefly heat each tortilla, either over the direct heat of the grill or in a heavy skillet.
  • Only enough to make them pliable.
  • Place 2 pieces of cheese on each tortilla, fold in half.
  • Wrap these (about 6 each) in foil and place in the preheated oven just long enough to barely melt the cheese, approximately 20 minutes.
  • To serve, cut the steaks against the grain into strips 3 to 4 inches long and about 1/4" thick.
  • Set out the fire roasted chiles, pickled onions, tortilla/cheese setups, guacamole and salsa.
  • Fill the tortillas and enjoy.

I'm a vegetarian, but I still love these tacos! I just use tofu instead of steak. The marinade is so flavorful, and the toppings are delicious.

These tacos are the perfect way to use up leftover steak. I made them the other night with some flank steak I had leftover from grilling. They were so good, I ate two of them!
