instructions
    1

    Begin by seasoning the steak with salt and pepper on both sides, ensuring an even coat for flavor.

    2

    Heat 1 tablespoon of oil in a skillet over medium-high heat. Once the oil is hot, add the steak to the pan.

    3

    Cook the steak for about 4 minutes on each side for medium-rare, depending on the thickness. Adjust cooking time if you prefer a different doneness.

    4

    Once cooked, remove the steak from the pan and let it rest for 5 minutes to retain the juices.

    5

    While the steak is resting, chop the onion, cilantro, and jalapeno finely. Set aside.

    6

    After the resting period, slice the steak against the grain into thin strips.

    7

    Warm the taco shells in the same skillet for about 1-2 minutes on each side or according to package instructions.

    8

    To assemble the tacos, place slices of steak in each taco shell. Add chopped onion, jalapeno, and cilantro on top.

    9

    Finish with a squeeze of lime over each taco and a dollop of sour cream and cheese.

    Serve immediately and enjoy your Tacos al Steak!
