Steak Tacos

Rub the steak with salt and pepper, set aside and make marinade.

Marinate the steak! Flank steak is best when it's marinated for a bit. The lime juice breaks down the fibers and keeps it more delicious

While the steak marinates make the chimichurri. This is optional but so great on these steak tacos. Set the chimichurri aside in the fridge

After the steak has marinated for 20 minutes - 24 hours max, heat up the grill. Place the grill on high heat. Bring it to about 500-600º with the lid closed. Be sure the grates are cleaned.

Place the marinated steak on the grill. Turn the grill down to a medium/high lid open. Cook it for about 7 minutes, untouched with the lid open. Flip the steak and cook for another 2-4 minutes depending on how you prefer your steak.

Let the steak rest for 5-10 minutes. This is important! Cube the steak into bite sized pieces and make those yummy flank steak tacos. I pile the steak on grilled tortillas with onions, avocado and a heap of chimichurri.

To Make Chimichurri (optional)

Blend everything in a small food processor. Taste and adjust salt if needed.Blend again if needed. Transfer to an airtight container and refrigerate until ready to use.
