Seriously Simple: These grilled steak tacos are perfect for a cookout

Diane Rossen Worthington, Tribune Content Agency on

1/3 cup sour cream

Thinly sliced avocado or guacamole

2 tablespoons crumbled Mexican cheese

Lime quarters

1. Combine 1/2 cup of the salsa and 3/4 cup of the beer in a medium mixing bowl; mix until well blended. Flatten out the flank steak in a shallow large non-aluminum dish. Pour the marinade over it and marinate for 2 to 24 hours covered in the refrigerator; the longer, the more tender. In a small serving bowl, combine the remaining salsa and beer for the sauce and mix together. Taste for seasoning. Cover and refrigerate until serving.

2. In a medium bowl combine the garlic, lime juice, honey, oil and salt and pepper, and mix to combine. Add the cabbage, carrot and cilantro, and mix to coat the vegetables with tongs. Taste for seasoning. Reserve.

 

3. Prepare a barbecue for medium-heat grilling. Remove the steak from the marinade and grill it 3 inches from the heat for 5 to 7 minutes on each side for a medium-rare, depending upon its size. Place on a carving platter and thinly slice against the grain.

4. Arrange a few slices of steak on top of each tortilla; Top with shredded cabbage, salsa, sour cream, avocado and cheese; serve with lime quarters immediately.

Advance preparation: The tacos can be prepared up to one day ahead through Step 2 and refrigerated.
