These delicious chimichurri steak tacos have an Argentinian flair. Seared flank steak slices on tortillas are topped with chimichurri sauce, pickled onion, cotija, and cilantro.

Ingredients

  • 1 pound flank steak
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • 2 tablespoons oil
  • 4 whites corn tortillas
  • 0.5 cups chimichurri sauce
  • 0.25 cups red onions
  • 0.5 cups cotija cheese
  • cilantro

Instructions

  1. 1

    Gather all ingredients.

  2. 2

    Sprinkle salt over steak to cover both sides. Wrap tightly in plastic wrap and refrigerate for 1 hour or up to 1 day.

  3. 3

    Heat a skillet over medium heat and add 1 tablespoon oil. Fry tortillas, 1 at a time, on each side until puffy and golden brown, about 1 minute. Set aside on a plate and cover with paper towels.

  4. 4

    Sear steak in the same skillet, adding oil as needed; turn over frequently until browned, about 8 minutes per side. For medium-rare, steaks will be firm and reddish-pink and juicy in the center. An instant-read thermometer inserted into the center should read 130 degrees F (54 degrees C) for medium rare.

  5. 5

    Remove to a cutting board to rest. Once rested, slice steak against the grain.

  6. 6

    Serve in tortilla and top with onions, chimichurri, and shredded cheese. Top with cilantro.
