Ingredients

• 1 pound flank steak or skirt steak
• 3 tablespoons lime juice
• 2 tablespoons orange juice
• 2 tablespoons olive oil
• 2 tablespoons tamari or coconut aminos (for gluten-free option)
• 3 cloves garlic
• 1 teaspoon ground cumin
• 1 teaspoon chili powder
• 1 teaspoon smoked paprika
• 0.5 teaspoon salt
• 0.5 teaspoons black pepper
• 12 small corn tortillas
• 0.5 medium red onion
• 0.5 cup cilantro
• 1 small fresh jalapeño (optional)
• 1 large avocado
• 1 medium tomato
• 0 dairy-free hot sauce or salsa (optional)
• 2 whole lime wedges (for serving)

Directions

Step 1

In a mixing bowl, combine lime juice, orange juice, olive oil, tamari (or coconut aminos), minced garlic, ground cumin, chili powder, smoked paprika, salt, and pepper to create the marinade.

Step 2

Place the steak in a large resealable bag or shallow dish and pour the marinade over it. Massage the marinade into the steak, ensuring it's evenly coated. Cover and refrigerate for at least 1 hour, or up to 8 hours for maximum flavor.

Step 3

Preheat a grill or grill pan to medium-high heat. Lightly oil the grates to prevent sticking.

Step 4

Remove the steak from the marinade and let any excess marinade drip off. Discard the remaining marinade.

Step 5

Grill the steak for 4-5 minutes per side (for medium-rare) or until it reaches your desired doneness. Use a meat thermometer if needed (130°F for medium-rare).

Step 6

Transfer the cooked steak to a cutting board and let it rest for 5 minutes. This allows the juices to redistribute.

Step 7

While the steak is resting, warm the corn tortillas by placing them directly on the grill for about 30 seconds per side, or until lightly charred and pliable.

Step 8

Thinly slice the rested steak against the grain into small, bite-sized strips.

Step 9

Prepare the toppings: thinly slice the red onion, chop the cilantro, dice the jalapeño (if using), cube the avocado, and dice the tomato.

Step 10

Assemble the tacos by placing a few slices of steak on each tortilla and topping them with the prepared onion, cilantro, jalapeño, avocado, tomato, and a drizzle of dairy-free hot sauce or salsa, if desired.

Step 11

Serve the tacos with lime wedges on the side for extra flavor, and enjoy!
