Grilled Onion Skirt Steak Tacos Recipes

Steps:

• Sprinkle steak with taco seasoning. Lightly coat grill rack. Grill steak, covered, over medium heat or broil 4 in. from the heat for 6-8 minutes on each side or until meat reaches desired doneness (for medium-rare, a thermometer should read 135°; medium, 140°; medium-well, 145°). Let stand for 5 minutes., Meanwhile, brush onions with oil. Grill, uncovered, over medium heat for 3-4 minutes on each side or until tender., Grill tortillas on each side until warm. Thinly slice steak. Top tortillas with steak, avocado and onions Serve with sour cream, cilantro and lime wedges.

Steps:

• Place the steak in a shallow glass baking dish. Whisk together the olive oil, soy sauce, honey, garlic, 1 1/2 teaspoons salt and 1 tablespoon pepper in a small bowl. Pour over the steak. Cover and refrigerate at least 4 hours, turning occasionally.
• Prepare a charcoal grill with two zones, for direct and indirect grilling, by arranging the hot coals on one side of the grill. Preheat the grill to medium-high heat.
• Remove the steak from the marinade. Grill the steak on medium-high direct heat, moving to indirect heat as needed for flareups, covered, for 4 to 5 minutes per side for medium-rare. Let rest for 10 minutes. Slice thinly against the grain into about 1/4-inch-thick slices.
• Meanwhile, place the corn tortillas flat on the grill grates for about 15 seconds per side.
• Place 2 slices grilled steak and 2 slices avocado on each tortilla. Top each taco with Tomatillo Sauce and Pineapple Salsa. Sprinkle with queso fresco. Garnish with cilantro leaves.
• Remove the husks from the tomatillos and rinse under cool water. Put the tomatillos and jalapenos in a pot and cover with water, then bring to a simmer and cook until fairly soft but not falling apart, 5 to 8 minutes. Strain into a colander (reserve the cooking water) and rinse under cool water to stop the cooking process.
• Put the jalapenos, garlic, cilantro, cumin, lime juice, 1 1/2 teaspoons salt and 1/4 cup of the cooking water into a blender. Blend for 5 seconds. Add the tomatillos and blend to a rough texture.
• Combine the pineapple, cilantro, red onion, cumin, jalapeno, lime juice and salt and pepper to taste in a medium bowl.

Steps:

• Prepare the steak: In a small bowl, mix together the salt, chile powder, coriander, cumin, garlic and lime zest. Rub mixture all over the steaks, cover and refrigerate for at least 1 hour or preferably overnight.
• Prepare the salsa: Light the grill or heat to medium-high (or heat the broiler). Grill onion, garlic and 1 jalapeño until tender and charred on all sides, 5 to 10 minutes (or place on a broiler pan and broil). Remove from heat until cool enough to handle, then roughly chop onions, peel garlic and remove seeds and stem from jalapeño.
• Transfer grilled onion, garlic and jalapeño to a blender or mini food processor. Halve the fresh jalapeño and seed it, if desired, then add it to the blender. Process to a chunky paste. Scrape into a serving bowl and toss with tomatoes, avocado, cilantro, lime juice and salt.
• Add more charcoal to the grill, if needed, and grill the steaks until done to taste, about 2 minutes per side for rare (or broil). Let meat rest on a cutting board covered with foil for at least 7 minutes. Meanwhile, grill or broil the tortillas until warm.
• To serve, slice the meat across the grain, and serve with the warm tortillas, radishes, lime wedges, salsa and crema. Let people assemble their own tacos at the table.

Steps:

• Combine onion, cilantro, lime juice, soy sauce, olive oil, brown sugar, oregano, red pepper flakes, and garlic in a large bowl.
• Place steak in a baking pan and pour marinade on top. Cover and refrigerate at least 1 to 4 hours.
• Preheat an outdoor grill for high heat and lightly oil the grate.
• Grill steak 2 to 4 minutes per side, to desired doneness. Allow meat to rest 5 to 10 minutes before slicing against the grain into 1/4-inch slices.
• Add meat to tortillas and top with your favorite toppings.

Steps:

• For the steak: Heat a grill pan over medium heat. Drizzle the steak with the olive oil and season with the ancho chile powder, 2 teaspoons salt and 1 teaspoon pepper. Grill the steak to the desired temperature, 3 to 4 minutes per side for medium rare. Set aside to rest while you make the salsa.
• For the grilled avocado-corn salsa: Brush the corn, jalapeño and red onion with the olive oil and sprinkle with 1 teaspoon salt and 1/2 teaspoon pepper. Grill until the vegetables are lightly charred, about 6 minutes. Slice the corn off the cob and chop the jalapeño and onion. Toss the vegetables with the cilantro, avocado and lime zest and juice in a bowl. Taste and adjust the seasoning as needed.
• For the assembly: Slice the steak thinly against the grain. Build a taco by grabbing a warm naan and adding a tablespoon of the chipotle mayo, if using. Top with some of the steak and a spoonful of the salsa. Top with some crumbled queso fresco and serve with a lime wedge.

Steps:

• 1. Marinating the Meat. In a food processor or blender combine one-quarter of the onions, the garlic, lime juice, cumin and 1/2 teaspoon salt. Process to a smooth puree. Place the skirt steak in a nonaluminum baking dish. Using a spoon, smear the marinade over both sides of the skirt steak. Cover and refrigerate for at least 1 hour or up to 8 hours.
• 2. Making the Grilled Chile-and-Onion Rajas. Turn on the oven to its lowest setting. Heat a gas grill to medium high or light a charcoal fire and let it burn just until the coals are covered with gray ash and very hot. Either turn the burner(s) in the center of the grill to medium-low or bank the coals to the sides of the grill for indirect cooking. Set the cooking grate in place, cover the grill and let the grate heat up, 5 minutes or so.
• Lay the chiles on the hottest part of the grill, and cook, turning occasionally until the skin is blistered and uniformly blackened all over, about 5 minutes. Be careful not to char the flesh, only the skin. Remove the chiles from the grill and cover with a kitchen towel.
• While the chiles are roasting, brush or spray the remaining onion slice with oil and lay the whole rounds of onions on the grill in a cooler spot than you chose for the chiles. When they're starting to soften and are browned on the first side, about 10 minutes, use a spatula to flip them and brown the other side. Transfer to an ovenproof serving dish and separate the rings (if they haven't started separating during grilling).
• 3. Grilling the Meat. Remove the steak from the marinade and gently shake off the excess. Oil the steak well on both sides and lay it over the hottest part of the grill. Grill, turning once, until richly browned and done to your liking, about 1 1/2 to 2 minutes per side for medium-rare (the way I like skirt steak).
• 4. Serving the tacos. Cut the long piece of skirt steak into 3-to 4-inch lengths, then cut each section across the grain (that is, in line with the full length of the steak) into thin strips. Mix with the chiles and onions, season with a little salt and set on the table along with the lime wedges and hot tortillas, for your guests to make into soft tacos.
• Working Ahead: Thin steaks like skirt taste best with a relatively short tour in the marinade - 1 to 8 hours. Leave them longer, and the marinade overpowers the flavor and saps the rosy color of the meat. The poblano-and-onion rajas can be made several hours ahead and left at room temperature; rewarm before serving. The steak, of course, must be grilled just before you're ready to eat.

Steps:

• To Marinate:.
• Remove the stems from all the dried chilis, then shake out and discard the seeds. Place the chilis in a small saucepan with water just to cover. Bring to a boil, remove from the heat and let stand for 20 minutes to soften. Drain.
• In a small, dry frying pan over medium heat, toast the cumin seeds until lightly browned and fragrant, 2 to 3 minutes. In a blender, combine the softened chilis, cumin seeds, garlic, jalapeno chili and red wine vinegar. Puree until thick and smooth, 1 to 2 minutes. Add the olive oil and salt and blend again until well mixed.
• Place the skirt steak in a shallow non-aluminum dish and pour the marinade over it. Let marinade at room temperature for 1 hour.
• Prepare a fire in a charcoal grill or preheat a broiler.
• To prepare the Relish:.
• In a small bowl, stir together the onion, Serrano chili, cilantro, salt, lime juice and olive oil. Set aside until you are ready to serve.
• When the fir is hot or the broiler is ready, place the steak on the grill rack about 3 inches from the coals, or place in a broiler pan at the same distance from the heat source. Grill or broil, turning once, until seared on the outside but still pink in the center, 1 to 2 minutes per side.
• To serve:.
• Slice the steak across the grain and on the diagonal. Arrange the slices on a platter and serve with the relish on the side.

Steps:

• Stir the mango, onion, chile, tomato, chopped cilantro and the juice of 1 lime together in a bowl. Season with salt and pepper to taste.
• Prepare a grill with high heat. Brush steak with oil, season all over with salt and pepper. Grill, turning once, until a thermometer inserted sideways into the meat registers 130° for medium-rare, about 7 minutes. Transfer to a cutting board, let rest 5 minutes. Cut steak crosswise into three sections, then thinly slice across the grain.
• Lightly toast the tortillas on the grill until charred but still pliable, 10 seconds per side. Keep warm, wrapped in a kitchen towel. Tuck steak into the tortillas, top with salsa and cilantro sprigs, serve with lime wedges and BUSH'S® BLACK BEAN FIESTA® GRILLIN BEANS®.

Steps:

• Prepare barbecue (medium-high heat). Sprinkle skirt steak on both sides with salt and 1 1/4 teaspoons chile powder. Whisk 1 1/2 tablespoons olive oil and 1 tablespoon lime juice in 11x7-inch glass dish. Add meat and turn to coat; place in single layer. Marinate 15 minutes.
• Meanwhile, brush green onions and corn with 1 tablespoon oil and sprinkle with salt and pepper. Grill vegetables until slightly charred, turning occasionally, about 2 minutes for green onions and 7 minutes for corn. Working over bowl, cut corn from cob directly into bowl. Coarsely chop green onions and add to corn. Stir in cilantro, lime peel, and remaining 1/4 teaspoon chile powder, 1/2 tablespoon oil, and 1 tablespoon lime juice. Season relish to taste with salt and pepper.
• Grill skirt steak to desired doneness, about 2 1/2 minutes per side for medium. Transfer to work surface; let rest 5 minutes.
• Place tortillas at edge of grill to warm and soften, about 1 minute.
• Arrange 2 warm tortillas on each of 4 plates. Thinly slice skirt steak across grain. Divide skirt steak and juices equally among tortillas. Spoon relish over each and serve.
