Ingredients

• 1 pound Flank steak or skirt steak
• 2 tablespoons Olive oil
• 2 tablespoons Fresh lime juice
• 3 cloves Garlic cloves, minced
• 1 teaspoon Ground cumin
• 1 teaspoon Smoked paprika
• 1 teaspoon Chili powder
• 1 teaspoon Salt
• 0.5 teaspoon Black pepper
• 8 tortillas Corn tortillas
• 0.25 cup Fresh cilantro, chopped
• 0.5 cup White onion, finely diced
• 4 small Radishes, thinly sliced
• 1 medium Avocado, diced
• 4 pieces Fresh lime wedges

Directions

Step 1

Begin by preparing the steak marinade. In a small mixing bowl, combine olive oil, fresh lime juice, minced garlic, ground cumin, smoked paprika, chili powder, salt, and black pepper. Whisk until fully integrated.

Step 2

Place the flank steak in a resealable plastic bag or shallow dish. Pour the marinade over the steak, ensuring it is fully coated. Seal the bag or cover the dish, then refrigerate for at least 1 hour, or up to 8 hours for best results.

Step 3

Preheat a grill, grill pan, or cast-iron skillet over medium-high heat. Remove the steak from the marinade and allow any excess to drip off. Discard the marinade.

Step 4

Cook the steak for 4-5 minutes per side, or until it reaches your desired level of doneness. Use a meat thermometer to ensure an internal temperature of 130°F for medium-rare or 140°F for medium.

Step 5

Transfer the cooked steak to a cutting board and allow it to rest for 5 minutes. This ensures the juices redistribute for a tender bite.

Step 6

While the steak rests, heat the corn tortillas. Place them in a dry skillet over medium heat for 30 seconds on each side, or until lightly charred and pliable.

Step 7

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

Step 8

Assemble the tacos: In each tortilla, place a generous portion of steak slices. Top with chopped cilantro, diced onion, thinly sliced radishes, and diced avocado.

Step 9

Serve the tacos with fresh lime wedges on the side for a burst of citrus. Enjoy immediately!
