Delicious steak tacos with homemade pico de gallo, perfect for taco night dinner.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 1½ lbs flank steak or skirt steak
  • 1 tbsp olive oil
  • 1 tsp salt
  • 1 tsp black pepper
  • 1 tsp garlic powder
  • 1 tsp ground cumin
  • ½ tsp chili powder
  • 12 small corn tortillas
  • 1 cup pico de gallo
  • ½ cup crumbled queso fresco
  • ¼ cup chopped fresh cilantro
  • Lime wedges, for serving

Instructions

  1. Pat the steak dry and rub with olive oil, salt, pepper, garlic powder, cumin, and chili powder.
  2. Heat a grill pan or skillet over medium-high heat. Cook steak for 4–5 minutes per side until nicely seared and cooked to medium-rare or desired doneness.

  4. Warm corn tortillas in a dry skillet or directly over a flame until soft and lightly charred.
  5. Assemble tacos by adding sliced steak to each tortilla.
  6. Top with pico de gallo, crumbled queso fresco, and chopped cilantro.
  7. Serve with lime wedges and extra salsa on the side.

Notes

  • Let the steak rest before slicing to keep it juicy.
  • Adjust spices to your taste.
