Ingredients
  

  • 1.5 lbs flank steak
  • 1/4 cup olive oil
  • 1/4 cup soy sauce
  • 2 tablespoons lime juice
  • 2 cloves garlic , minced
  • 1 teaspoon ground cumin
  • 1/2 teaspoon chili powder
  • 12 small corn tortillas
  • 1/2 cup white onion, finely diced
  • 1/2 cup fresh cilantro, chopped
  • 1 medium avocado , sliced
  • 1 lime , cut into wedges

Instructions
 

  • In a large resealable bag or bowl, whisk together olive oil, soy sauce, lime juice, minced garlic, cumin, and chili powder.
  • Add the flank steak to the marinade, ensuring it is fully coated; refrigerate for at least 2 hours.
  • Preheat an outdoor grill to high heat, approximately 450°F (230°C).
  • Remove the steak from the marinade, pat slightly dry, and discard the remaining marinade.
  • Place steak on the grill and cook for 5 to 6 minutes per side, or until internal temperature reaches 135°F (57°C) for medium-rare.
  • Transfer the steak to a carving board and allow it to rest for 10 minutes to retain juices.
  • While steak rests, place corn tortillas on the grill for 30 seconds per side until warm and slightly charred.
  • Thinly slice the steak against the grain into bite-sized strips.
  • Assemble tacos by placing steak strips onto warmed tortillas and topping with diced onion, cilantro, avocado slices, and a squeeze of lime.
