Ingredients
MARINADE
- 1/3 cup Avocado Oil or Olive Oil
- 1/3 cup Lime Juice
- 1/4 cup Orange Juice
- 1/4 cup Distilled White Vinegar
- 1/4 cup Fresh Cilantro, finely chopped
- 3 cloves Garlic, minced
- 1 tbs Jalapeño, sliced
- 1 tsp Salt
- 1 tsp Black Pepper
- 1 tsp Ground Cumin
- 1 tsp Chili Powder
- 1 tsp Oregano
- 1/2 tsp Paprika
TACOS
- 1 8oz package of ¡Yo Quiero!™️ Original Guacamole (for serving)
- 1 lb Flank or Skirt Steak
- 8 White Corn Tortillas
- 1 cup Onion, diced (for serving)
- 4 oz Cotija Cheese (for serving)
- Cilantro (for garnish)
Directions
In a large bowl, whisk together all of the ingredients for the marinade.
Place the steak in a large plastic zipper bag. Pour the marinade over the beef, seal the bag and shake to evenly distribute the marinade.
Refrigerate for at least 1 hour, or up to 8 hours.
Heat a grill or a large grill pan over high heat. Brush with oil to prevent sticking. Cook the steak for 5 to 8 minutes on each side and then transfer the steak to a cutting board and allow to rest for 5 minutes.
Warm corn tortillas in a dry pan over medium-high heat for 30 to 60 seconds each side, until softened slightly.
Thinly slice the steak and chop into small cubes for smaller bites.
- Serve the steak on the warm tortillas with onion, guacamole, cotija cheese, cilantro or your choice of toppings.
