Steak tacos do not need a pile of ingredients to hit hard. Wake the Dead brings smoky coffee and chile depth, then charred onions and lime keep everything moving.
Ingredients
- 1 lb flank, skirt or sirloin steak
- 1 tbsp olive oil
- 1 tbsp Wake the Dead
- 1 large yellow onion, sliced into thick rounds
- 8 small corn or flour tortillas
- 1 lime, cut into wedges
- Chopped cilantro, avocado or crumbled cheese, optional
Directions
- Pat steak dry. Rub with olive oil and Wake the Dead. Let sit while the grill or skillet heats.
- Heat a grill or heavy skillet over high heat. Cook onion rounds until charred and tender, about 3 to 4 minutes per side. Set aside.
- Cook steak to your preferred doneness, following safe minimum temperatures for whole cuts of beef. Rest 5 to 10 minutes.
- Warm tortillas. Slice steak thinly across the grain and chop the charred onions.
- Build tacos with steak, onions, lime and any optional toppings.
