GRILLED STEAK TACOS WITH CHERRY TOMATO-AVOCADO SALSA
In this supremely summery taco recipe, chile-rubbed grilled steak is topped with a spicy tomato-avocado salsa before being rolled into warm corn tortillas. Grilling the onions, garlic and jalapeño for the salsa adds a concentrated sweetness, while lime zest keeps everything sharp and bright. If you don't have access to a grill, feel free to use your broiler.

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:
- For the roasted tomato salsa: Position a rack in the middle of the oven and preheat the oven to 450 degrees F. (Or prepare a grill for high heat.)
- Line a rimmed baking sheet with parchment paper. Place the tomatoes, onions, jalapeno and garlic on the parchment. Roast for 15 to 20 minutes, then remove the onions and garlic and set aside; peel the garlic. Return the baking sheet to the oven and roast the jalapeno and tomatoes until charred and soft, about 15 minutes more.
- (Or, if making on the grill, place the vegetables on a perforated pan or aluminum foil on the hot grill. Cook, covered and turning when necessary, until all the vegetables are evenly charred and soft. The tomatoes and jalapeno will take longer than the garlic and onions, so remove everything as it finishes cooking.)
- Transfer all the vegetables to a blender and add the cilantro, chipotles with adobo sauce and salt. Blend on medium speed until a uniform puree has formed. With the motor running, slowly add the oil until emulsified and completely incorporated. If the consistency of the salsa is too thick, add some water 1 tablespoon at a time until the desired consistency is achieved. Taste and adjust the seasonings, adding more chipotle if desired. Let cool before using, or transfer to an airtight container and refrigerate until needed. The salsa will keep for up to 1 week.
- For the skirt steak: Season the steak on both sides with salt and pepper. Toss with some of the roasted tomato salsa and marinate, refrigerated, for at least 1 1/2 hours and up to overnight. Reserve the remaining salsa for serving.
- For the grilled romaine: To clean the romaine, place the halves in a large bowl (or several bowls) filled with cold water. Swoosh the lettuce gently in the water and let it sit for 10 minutes--the dirt and grime will settle to the bottom of the bowl. Gently lift the lettuce out of the water and rinse the bowl. Repeat the cleaning process until the water remains clean after you've swished the leaves around in it. Gently pat the lettuce dry around and between the leaves to remove as much moisture as possible. Rinse and dry the bowl, and place the lettuce back in it. Season the lettuce with the olive oil and some salt and pepper, and gently toss to combine.
- Prepare a grill or grill pan for medium-high heat.
- Remove the steak from the marinade and let any excess marinade drip off. Grill 4 to 5 minutes per side for medium rare. Let rest for 5 to 7 minutes.
- Place the romaine halves on the grill cut-side down and grill until well marked, about 2 minutes. Rotate the romaine 45 degrees and grill until well marked again, 2 minutes more. (If doing this on a grill pan, you may need to work in batches.)
- Transfer the romaine halves to a cutting board and chop them into 2-inch pieces. Place the romaine in a large bowl and toss with the lemon juice. Slice the steaks thin and serve with the reserved roasted tomato salsa and grilled romaine. Serve immediately.
GRILLED SKIRT STEAK WITH AVOCADO-TOMATO SALSA
Living in California, we often see skirt steak available. I found this recipe to be fairly authentic to how they grill it out here. You can use lemon juice, but definitely use the lime juice if you can. The onion is wonderful with this but tends to fall though the grill grates, so have an extra sweet onion sliced thick to grill as well. Allow 2 to 4 hours to marinade. (Time for marinading is included in the cooking time)

Steps:
- Place all the marinade ingredients in a bowl and mix. Place skirt steak and marinade in a ziplock bag and put in the fridge for 2 to 4 hours.
- Meanwhile, mix all the salsa ingredients in a bowl, cover and refrigerate.
- Place oven on 200°F and wrap your tortillas, sealed in foil for about 20 minutes.
- Prepare your barbecue for medium heat grilling. Remove steak from the marinade and place on the grill for 4 to 6 minutes on each side (medium rare to medium).
- Slice the sweet onion and place on the grill as well, brushing with the marinade. Grill until still firm, but just turning tender.
- Place the steak and onions on a carving platter. Slice the steak thinly on the diagonal and serve on a platter with the onion.
- To eat, place some steak, onion and Avocado-Tomato salsa in a warm tortilla and enjoy!
