Cooking Instructions
Follow our step-by-step guide on how to make Flank Steak Tacos with Mango Avocado Salsa.
Step 1
To start, grab a mixing bowl and blend together soy sauce, olive oil, lime juice, white vinegar, minced garlic, salt, black pepper, white pepper, garlic powder, oregano, cayenne pepper, cumin, and smoked paprika.
Step 2
This flavorful mixture will serve as a delicious marinade for your flank steak.
Step 3
Next, place the flank steak in a large resealable bag or container, then pour the marinade over it, ensuring the meat is well coated.
Step 4
Seal the bag or container and let it marinate in the refrigerator for anywhere from 8 to 24 hours.
Step 5
This step is crucial as it allows the flavors to deeply infuse into the meat, making every bite a burst of taste.
Step 6
While the steak is marinating, let’s whip up a refreshing mango-avocado salsa.
Step 7
In a bowl, combine diced mango, diced avocado, a splash of lime juice, chopped jalapeño, diced red onion, and fresh cilantro.
Step 8
Gently mix everything together and set it aside to let those vibrant flavors mingle.
Step 9
When you’re ready to cook, preheat your oven’s broiler, making sure to position the rack at least 6 inches from the heat source.
Step 10
Take the flank steak out of the marinade and pat it dry with paper towels; this will help achieve a beautiful sear.
Step 11
Place the steak under the broiler on high for about 18 minutes, flipping it halfway through.
Step 12
You’re looking for a firm texture with a hint of pink in the center.
Step 13
For the best results, use an instant-read thermometer to check for doneness; it should read at least 130°F (54°C).
Step 14
Once the steak is cooked to perfection, let it rest for a few minutes.
Step 15
This allows the juices to redistribute, ensuring each bite is tender and juicy.
Step 16
After resting, cut the steak into small, bite-sized cubes.
Step 17
Now, let’s warm up some tortillas! Wrap 8 tortillas in a damp paper towel and pop them in the microwave for 20 to 30 seconds until they’re soft and pliable.
Step 18
Finally, it’s time to assemble your delicious creation! Serve the cubed flank steak on the warm tortillas and generously top them with the vibrant mango-avocado salsa.
Step 19
Each bite is a delightful combination of savory steak and fresh, zesty salsa that will have everyone coming back for more.
Step 20
Enjoy your culinary masterpiece!.
