Cooking Instructions
Follow our step-by-step guide on how to make Grilled Skirt Steak Tacos with Fresh Salsa.
Step 1
Start by grabbing a large bowl and combine the chopped onion, fresh cilantro, zesty lime juice, soy sauce, olive oil, dark brown sugar, dried oregano, red pepper flakes, and minced garlic.
Step 2
Give it a good mix to create a flavorful marinade that will elevate your skirt steak.
Step 3
Next, place the skirt steak in a baking pan and pour the marinade over it, making sure every inch of the steak is well coated.
Step 4
Cover the pan and let it chill in the refrigerator for at least an hour, or if you have the time, let it marinate for up to four hours to really soak in those delicious flavors.
Step 5
When you’re ready to cook, preheat your outdoor grill to high heat and lightly oil the grate to keep the steak from sticking.
Step 6
Grill the marinated steak for about 2 to 4 minutes on each side, depending on how you like your meat cooked.
Step 7
Once it’s done to your liking, take the steak off the grill and let it rest for 5 to 10 minutes.
Step 8
This resting time is crucial as it allows the juices to redistribute, ensuring every bite is tender and juicy.
Step 9
After resting, slice the steak against the grain into 1/4-inch thick pieces for the best texture.
Step 10
While you’re at it, warm up some corn tortillas on the grill for just a few seconds on each side until they’re soft and pliable.
Step 11
Now, it’s time to assemble your delicious tacos! Fill each tortilla with the sliced steak and top it off with your favorite garnishes, like extra cilantro, diced onions, or a splash of salsa.
Step 12
Enjoy the burst of flavors in every bite, and don’t forget to share your taco creations with friends and family!.
