ARRACHERA (MEXICAN SKIRT STEAK FOR TACOS)



Arrachera (Mexican Skirt Steak for Tacos) image

This is a recipe for traditional arrachera, which is a thinly sliced skirt steak with seasonings. The longer it marinates, the more robust the flavor will be. Heat tortillas on the grill or in the microwave. Serve the arrachera with warmed tortillas and your favorite taco toppings, such as onion, cilantro, hot sauce, lettuce, cheese, etc.
