1 pound skirt steak
1 tablespoon chili powder
1/2 teaspoon dried oregano
1/4 teaspoon sugar
Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
Eight 6-inch corn tortillas
1 tablespoon vegetable oil

Transfer the steak to a medium bowl. Immediately add the onions to the skillet, and stir until brown and slightly softened, about 1 1/2 minutes; transfer to the bowl with the steak, and stir to combine.

Tips:

  • Use high-quality steak: Opt for well-marbled steak, such as ribeye or flank steak, to ensure tender and flavorful tacos.
  • Marinate the steak: Marinating the steak in a flavorful mixture of spices, herbs, and citrus juices tenderizes and enhances the flavor.
  • Cook the steak properly: Cook the steak over high heat to develop a nice crust while keeping the inside tender and juicy. Use a meat thermometer to ensure the steak reaches your desired doneness.
  • Slice the steak thinly: Thinly sliced steak is easier to eat in tacos and provides more surface area for the flavors to shine through.
  • Use fresh, high-quality toppings: Fresh ingredients like salsa, guacamole, pico de gallo, and sour cream add brightness and flavor to the tacos. Choose ripe, in-season produce for the best taste.
  • Serve the tacos warm: Enjoy the tacos while they are still warm to appreciate the flavors and textures at their best.
