Ingredients

• 1 lb flank steak
• 6 street taco tortillas

Marinade

• ½ cup lemon juice
• ¼ cup olive oil
• ¼ cup Worcestershire sauce
• ½ bunch cilantro
• ½ small onion (diced)
• 2 cloves garlic (smashed)
• 1 Tbs salt
• 1 Tbs black pepper
• 1 Tbs cumin
• 2 tsp oregano
• 1 tsp coriander

Suggested toppings

• Cilantro leaves
• Finely sliced radish
• Finely sliced red onion
• Queso fresco
• Fast Restaurant Style Salsa

Directions

1. Mix marinade ingredients in a container just big enough to hold the meat.
2. Submerge meat in marinade for 6 to 8 hours, stirring if necessary so that all meat has been in the marinade.
3. Heat a grill pan or iron skillet to medium heat.
4. Wipe off excess marinade and add steak to the pan. Cook 3 to 5 minutes per side or until internal temperature is 130°F. This is a rare temperature, but the steak will get chewy if it is cooked any longer.
5. Let rest 5 minutes. Cut steak across the grain on the bias.
6. These are street tacos, so fill sparingly with meat and toppings.
