Flank Steak Tacos with Mango-Avocado Salsa image

After making steak tacos a ton of different ways from a ton of different recipes, I think I found my favorite. Very flavorful meat and great salsa. No one flavor seems to kill the rest. Serve with lime wedges, your choice of tortillas, and sour cream.

Time 8h30m

Yield 8

Number Of Ingredients 21

⅓ cup soy sauce
¼ cup olive oil
1 small lime, juiced
3 tablespoons white vinegar
2 cloves garlic, minced
½ teaspoon salt
½ teaspoon ground black pepper
½ teaspoon ground white pepper
½ teaspoon garlic powder
½ teaspoon dried oregano
½ teaspoon cayenne pepper
½ teaspoon ground cumin
½ teaspoon smoked paprika
1 ½ pounds beef flank steak, trimmed of excess fat
1 medium ripe mango, diced
1 avocado, chopped
1 medium lime, juiced
1 fresh jalapeno pepper, seeded and diced
¼ cup chopped red onion
¼ cup chopped fresh cilantro
1 (12 ounce) package tortillas

Steps:

  • Combine soy sauce, olive oil, lime juice, vinegar, garlic, salt, black pepper, white pepper, garlic powder, oregano, cayenne pepper, cumin, and paprika in a container. Place flank steak in the marinade and refrigerate for 8 to 24 hours.
  • Mix mango, avocado, lime juice, jalapeno, red onion, and cilantro together to make the salsa.
  • Set an oven rack at least 6 inches from the heat source and preheat the oven's broiler.
  • Remove flank steak from marinade and pat dry with paper towels.
  • Broil flank steak on high, flipping at the halfway mark, until steaks are beginning to firm and are hot and slightly pink in the center, about 18 minutes. An instant-read thermometer inserted into the center should read at least 130 degrees F (54 degrees C).
  • Cut flank steak into small cubes. Wrap 8 tortillas in a paper towel and heat in the microwave until soft, 20 to 30 seconds. Serve steak on tortillas.

Time 20m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 12

1 mango, diced
1/2 small red onion, finely chopped
1/4 cup chopped fresh cilantro, plus more for topping
Juice of 1 lime, plus wedges for serving
Kosher salt and freshly ground pepper
1 tablespoon vegetable oil
1 1/4 pounds ground beef chuck
1 15-ounce can diced fire-roasted tomatoes with chiles
1/2 to 1 teaspoon ancho chile powder, plus more for topping
8 corn tostadas
Shredded iceberg lettuce, for topping
2/3 cup sour cream

Steps:

  • Combine the mango, red onion, cilantro, lime juice, 1/4 teaspoon salt and a few grinds of pepper in a medium bowl; set aside.
  • Heat the vegetable oil in a large nonstick skillet over medium-high heat. Add the ground beef and cook, stirring occasionally, until it starts browning, about 2 minutes. Stir in the tomatoes, chile powder and 3/4 teaspoon salt. Continue to cook until the beef is cooked through and the sauce is slightly reduced, about 2 minutes.
  • Divide the beef among the tostadas; top with lettuce, the mango salsa, sour cream and cilantro. Sprinkle with chile powder, if desired. Serve with lime wedges.
