Ingredients
For the Steak:
1 lb flank steak or skirt steak
2 tbsp olive oil
1 tsp chili powder
1 tsp garlic powder
1 tsp cumin
Salt and pepper to taste
1 tbsp lime juice
For the Tacos:
6 small tortillas
1 cup shredded cheddar cheese
1 cup shredded mozzarella cheese
1 small red onion, diced
1 bunch cilantro, chopped
Lime wedges
For the Sauce:
½ cup sour cream
2 tbsp mayonnaise
1 tsp lime juice
1 tbsp fresh cilantro, chopped
Salt and pepper to taste
Instructions
Prepare the Steak: Preheat your grill or skillet to medium-high heat. Rub the steak with olive oil, chili powder, garlic powder, cumin, salt, and pepper. Grill or sear the steak for 4-5 minutes on each side for medium-rare, or longer for your preferred doneness. Let the steak rest for a few minutes, then slice it thinly against the grain.
Make the Sauce: In a small bowl, mix together sour cream, mayonnaise, lime juice, cilantro, salt, and pepper until smooth. Adjust the seasoning to taste.
Assemble the Tacos: Warm the tortillas in a skillet or on the grill for 30 seconds on each side. Place a few slices of steak on each tortilla, then sprinkle with a mix of shredded cheddar and mozzarella cheese. Return the tacos to the skillet and cook for another 1-2 minutes, or until the cheese is melted and the tortillas are crispy.
Top and Serve: Top the tacos with diced red onion and fresh cilantro. Serve with lime wedges on the side and drizzle with the prepared sauce.
