How To Make Skirt Steak Tacos with Roasted Tomato Salsa Recipe?
- Grill the Tortillas: Wrap the tortillas in foil and heat on the top rack of the grill while cooking the steak.
- Grill the Steak: Heat a grill pan over high heat. Brush the steak with oil and season with salt and pepper. Grill for 3-4 minutes on each side for medium-rare. Let it rest for 5 minutes, then slice thinly against the grain.
- Assemble the Tacos: Place shredded lettuce, steak slices, red onion, salsa, sour cream, and avocado on each tortilla.
- Grill the Vegetables: Heat oil in a pan, sauté the chiles, onion, and garlic until soft.
- Grill the Tomatoes: Brush tomatoes with oil, season with salt and pepper, and grill until soft and slightly charred.
- Blend the Salsa: Add the grilled vegetables and tomatoes to a food processor with lime juice, salt, and pepper. Process until smooth, then add cilantro and pulse a few times.
Recipe Tips:
- Let the Steak Rest: After grilling, always let the steak rest for 5 minutes. This keeps it juicy and tender when sliced.
- Grill the Tomatoes Well: Make sure the tomatoes are slightly charred before blending. This enhances the salsa’s flavor.
- Adjust the Spice: If you want a milder salsa, remove the seeds from the serrano chiles before grilling.
- Warm the Tortillas: Gently warm the tortillas on the grill or in a pan for a soft, flexible taco.
- Use Fresh Ingredients: For the best taste, always use fresh cilantro and lime juice in the salsa.
How To Store & Reheat Leftovers?
- Refrigerate: Allow the leftover tacos to cool to room temperature, then store them in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 3 days.
- Reheat: Heat the tortillas and fillings in a pan over medium heat for 2-3 minutes, stirring occasionally.
