Steak Tacos With Cilantro Radish Salsa Recipes

Steps:

• Heat 1 tablespoon oil in a large skillet over high heat. Season steak with salt and pepper and cook about 5 minutes per side for medium rare. Let steak rest 5 minutes.
• Meanwhile, chop half of cilantro and toss with radishes, onions, chile, lime juice, and remaining 1 tablespoon oil in a medium bowl. Season radish salsa with salt and pepper.
• Slice steak and serve on tortillas topped with radish salsa, queso fresco, and remaining cilantro.

Steps:

• Heat a large cast-iron skillet over medium-high heat. Add the cumin seeds and toast, stirring occasionally, about 1 minute; transfer to a bowl. Add the garlic and chiles to the skillet. Cook, turning occasionally, until soft and blackened in spots, about 5 minutes. Transfer to a food processor and let cool. Add the cumin seeds, vegetable oil, 1/4 cup lime juice and the brown sugar and puree until smooth. Season with 1 1/2 teaspoons salt and a few grinds of pepper. Transfer to a resealable plastic bag and add the steak, shaking well to coat. Refrigerate, 1 to 4 hours.
• Soak the onion in a bowl of cold water. Meanwhile, wipe out the skillet and heat over high heat. Cook the tomatillos, turning, until well charred, about 7 minutes. Transfer to a plate and let cool. Remove the charred husks and roughly chop the flesh. Drain the onion. Wipe out the food processor; add the tomatillos, onion, cilantro and the remaining 1 to 2 tablespoons lime juice and puree until smooth. Season with 3/4 teaspoon salt and a few grinds of pepper; set aside.
• Meanwhile, bring the steak to room temperature, about 30 minutes. Preheat a grill to high. Remove the steak from the marinade and shake off any excess. Lightly oil the grill, then grill the steak until charred on the bottom, about 5 minutes. Flip and cook until charred on the other side, 1 to 3 more minutes. Transfer to a cutting board and let rest 10 minutes.
• Warm the tortillas on the grill. Thinly slice the steak against the grain. Double up the tortillas and fill with the steak and tomatillo salsa. Top with cheese and radishes.

Steps:

• Preheat a grill to medium high. Combine the lime zest, chile powder, 1 tablespoon vegetable oil and 2 teaspoons honey in a small bowl. Rub all over the steak; season with salt and a few grinds of pepper. Let marinate at room temperature, 10 minutes.
• Meanwhile, pulse the cilantro, scallions, lime juice, the remaining 1 teaspoon honey and 1/2 teaspoon salt in a blender until chunky. Slowly add the remaining 1/4 cup vegetable oil and 2 tablespoons water and blend until smooth. Pour half the dressing into a large bowl (reserve the rest for topping). Add the bell peppers and radishes to the bowl with the dressing and toss to coat. Season with salt and pepper.
• Grill the steak until well marked, 4 to 6 minutes per side for medium rare. Transfer to a cutting board and let rest 10 minutes. Warm the tortillas as the label directs. Thinly slice the steak. Serve on the tortillas and top with the queso fresco, reserved dressing and more cilantro. Serve with the bell pepper salad and lime wedges.

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:

• Prepare marinade for steak by using the juice from 2 limes, salt, pepper, cilantro and chopped onion.
• Place all these in a plastic zip top style bag along with flank steak. Refrigerate for at least 8 hours or overnight.
• Preheat grill, bbq, George Foreman or oven broiler.
• Grill steaks over coals for about 4-6 minutes per side. Let it rest a few minutes before cutting steak into slices about 1/8-1/4 inch thick.
• Cut remaining limes in half.
• Using the Romaine lettuce leaves, fill with the remaining shredded Romain lettuce, tomatoes, steak strips, cheese and salsa.
• Squeeze juice of half a lime over each wrap, wrap it up and enjoy!
