For optimal flavor, marinate the steak for at least 30 minutes (or up to 4 hours) in the lime juice, olive oil, and garlic mixture before grilling. Feel free to customize your tacos with your favorite toppings! Consider adding crumbled cotija cheese, a dollop of sour cream, or a sprinkle of cilantro. If you don't have a grill pan, you can also use a regular skillet or an outdoor grill. To save time, you can purchase pre-made pickled red onions.

Follow The Directions
01
StepSeason the steak generously with freshly ground black pepper, ensuring it adheres well to the surface. (2 minutes)
02
StepPreheat a grill pan over medium-high heat. Lightly coat the pan with cooking spray. Place the steak on the hot grill pan and sear for approximately 6 minutes on each side, or until the steak reaches your desired level of doneness. (12 minutes)
03
StepRemove the steak from the grill pan and transfer it to a cutting board. Allow the steak to rest for at least 5 minutes to allow the juices to redistribute, ensuring a more tender and flavorful result. (5 minutes)
04
StepUsing a sharp knife, thinly slice the steak diagonally against the grain. This will maximize tenderness. In a small bowl, whisk together the fresh lime juice, olive oil, and minced garlic. Drizzle this vibrant mixture over the sliced steak and sprinkle with kosher salt. (5 minutes)
05
StepWarm the corn tortillas on the preheated grill pan, lightly coated with cooking spray, for about 20 seconds on each side, or until they are pliable and lightly charred. This adds a touch of smoky flavor and enhances their texture. (2 minutes)
06
StepGrill the scallions until they are lightly charred and softened, adding a subtle smoky sweetness to the dish. (3 minutes)
07
StepDivide the flavorful steak evenly among the warm tortillas. Top with a generous helping of chopped romaine lettuce, crunchy red cabbage, creamy avocado slices, and tangy pickled red onions. Garnish with the grilled scallions for an elegant touch. (5 minutes)
