Servings 8 tacos
Ingredients
- 1 1/2 pounds flank steak
- 1/3 cup oil
- juice of 1 lemon
- juice of 2 limes
- juice of 1 orange
- 1 teaspoon minced garlic
- 1 teaspoon chili powder
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 8 6-inch flour tortillas
- chopped cilantro, avocado, onions, and lime wedges for serving
Instructions
- Whisk together oil, lemon juice, lime juice, orange juice, garlic, chili powder, and salt. Pour into a large ziploc bag.
- Add steak to the bag, press out all of the excess air, and seal the bag.
- Chill for 30 minutes.
- Use tongs to transfer steak to a preheated grill or grill pan, discard excess marinade.
- Grill for about 8 minutes on each side or until cooked to desired doneness. (I like mine just a little pink in the middle for best flavor and ultra juicy/tender steak).
- Assemble tacos with steak in the tortillas, topped with your favorite garnishes like avocado, onions, cilantro, salsa, and fresh squeezed lime juice.
