Jalapeno Steak Recipes

Steps:

• Marinate and cook the steak:
• Combine jalapeño, garlic, cilantro, lime juice, oil, salt, pepper, and cumin in a large resealable bag or bowl. Add steak and toss to coat; if using bowl, wrap with plastic. Marinate at least 30 minutes at room temperature or chill up to overnight in refrigerator, tossing occasionally.
• Let steak sit at room temperature 30 minutes before cooking if chilled. Prepare a grill or grill pan for medium-high heat. Remove steak from marinade, scraping off any bits that cling to meat; discard marinade. Grill steak 2-3 minutes per side for medium rare. Let rest 10 minutes before thinly slicing against the grain.
• Assemble the tacos:
• Warm tortillas in a microwave, oven, or over a gas flame. Divide steak among tortillas, then top with salsa, avocado, sour cream, queso fresco, if using, cilantro, and onion. Serve with lime wedges alongside.
• Do Ahead
• Steak can be marinated 1 day ahead; keep chilled.

Steps:

• Heat broiler. Rub steak with chili powder and season with salt; set aside. In a pan over medium heat, heat oil; cook jalapeño and half the onion,stirring frequently, until soft, 8 to 10 minutes. Remove from heat and cool to room temperature; transfer to a blender or food processor and process with Worcestershire, lemon juice and 2 teaspoons salt until just blended. On a broiler pan, broil steak, flipping once, to desired doneness, about 5 minutes for medium-rare. Transfer steak to a cutting board, let rest for 3 minutes and cut into 1-inch strips. Divide steak among tortillas and top each with 1 tbsp jalapeño sauce, plus remaining onion, cilantro and avocado. Serve with lime wedges.
