Ingredients

• 1 lb Flank steak
• 2 tbsp Olive oil
• 2 tbsp Lime juice
• 2 tbsp Soy sauce
• 3 Garlic cloves, minced
• 1 tsp Ground cumin
• 1 tsp Paprika
• 1 tsp Salt
• 1 tsp Black pepper
• 3 Bell peppers (assorted colors), sliced
• 1 Yellow onion, sliced
• 8 Corn tortillas (or flour tortillas)
• 0.25 cup Cilantro, chopped
• 1 Avocado, sliced
• 0.5 cup Sour cream
• 0.5 cup Shredded cheese (optional)
• 1 Tomato, diced

Directions

Step 1

In a small bowl, whisk together olive oil, lime juice, soy sauce, minced garlic, ground cumin, paprika, salt, and black pepper to create the marinade.

Step 2

Place the flank steak in a large resealable plastic bag or shallow dish, and pour the marinade over the steak. Seal the bag or cover the dish and marinate in the refrigerator for at least 30 minutes, or up to 4 hours for maximum flavor.

Step 3

Heat a large skillet or grill pan over medium-high heat. Remove the steak from the marinade and allow any excess liquid to drip off. Cook the steak for 4–5 minutes per side for medium-rare, or longer depending on your desired doneness.

Step 4

Transfer the cooked steak to a plate and let it rest for 5 minutes before slicing it thinly against the grain.

Step 5

While the steak rests, heat a tablespoon of olive oil in the same skillet over medium heat. Add the sliced bell peppers and onions, and sauté for 5–7 minutes, or until softened and slightly charred.

Step 6

Warm the tortillas on a dry skillet or directly over a gas flame for a few seconds on each side, until pliable and lightly toasted.

Step 7

To assemble, place a few slices of steak in the center of each tortilla. Add a spoonful of sautéed peppers and onions, and top with chopped cilantro, avocado slices, diced tomato, sour cream, and shredded cheese if desired.

Step 8

Serve the tacos immediately with lime wedges on the side for an extra burst of flavor.
