Michelada Flank Steak Tacos image

The flavors of Mexican michelada-the refreshing spiced beer drink-go perfectly with chile-rubbed flank steak and tangy pilsner-spiked pico de gallo in these crave-worthy tacos. For maximum flavor, be sure to marinate the steak for at least 1 hour.

Time 1h40m

Yield 4 to 6 servings

Number Of Ingredients 20

1 cup (8 ounces) pilsner beer
One 8-ounce can tomato sauce
1/4 cup vegetable oil
1 lime, quartered
One 2-pound flank steak
Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
1 pint cherry tomatoes, halved or quartered, depending on size
1/4 cup (2 ounces) pilsner beer
1/4 cup finely chopped fresh cilantro
1/4 cup finely chopped red onion
1 tablespoon lime juice
1 tablespoon hot sauce
6 to 8 radishes, cut into small wedges (about same size as the halved cherry tomatoes)
2 jalapenos, seeded and finely chopped
Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
Olive oil, for drizzling
3 tablespoons chile-lime seasoning (I like Tajin)
1 tablespoon ancho chile powder
Zest of 2 limes
12 to 18 warmed corn or flour tortillas

Steps:

  • For the marinade: Add the beer, tomato sauce and oil to a large resealable bag. Squeeze the limes in, then drop them in the bag. Add the steak, sprinkle with salt and pepper and seal. Marinate at room temperature for 1 to 2 hours. Remove the steak from the bag and discard the contents. Pat the steak dry on both sides and sprinkle lightly with more salt and pepper.
  • For the pico de gallo: Add the tomatoes, beer, cilantro, onion, lime juice, hot sauce, radishes, jalapenos and a pinch of salt and pepper to a large bowl. Drizzle with some olive oil, then toss and let rest at room temperature until ready to use.
  • For the rub: Preheat the grill of a smart countertop grill to high heat. Combine the chile-lime seasoning, chile powder and zest in a small bowl. Sprinkle the seasoning all over the steak and rub into both sides. Place the steak on the grill, cover and cook until the internal temperature reaches 120 degrees F for medium-rare, flipping halfway through, about 8 minutes total. Remove the steak to a plate, cover loosely with aluminum foil and let rest for 10 minutes.
  • Thinly slice the steak against the grain. Make tacos with warmed tortillas and the prepared pico de gallo.

Categories     main-dish

Time 1h35m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 22

24 ounces skirt steak (do not trim too much!)
1 tablespoon fino sherry, such as Tio Pepe
1 tablespoon soy sauce
1 teaspoon grated fresh garlic
1 teaspoon grated fresh ginger
Sea salt and freshly ground black pepper
Twelve 5-inch fresh corn tortillas
Avocado Salsa, recipe follows
Shallot Rings, recipe follows
Fresh cilantro leaves, for garnish
3 tablespoons finely chopped fresh cilantro leaves
1 clove garlic, deveined (halved and any green center removed) and minced
1 jalapeno, seeded and finely chopped
1 small onion, minced
2 key limes, juiced
Kosher salt
2 avocados, halved and pitted
4 shallots, peeled and cut into rings
1 cup buttermilk
1 quart neutral cooking oil, for frying
1 cup fine South Carolina grits
Kosher salt

Steps:

  • Add the skirt steak to a shallow dish. Add the sherry, soy sauce, garlic, ginger, salt and pepper. Carefully toss to combine, then marinate the skirt steak for 30 to 45 minutes at room temperature. (Optional: Use a fork to prick the steak many times to help the marinade do its job.)
  • Prepare a gas or charcoal grill for cooking over direct medium-high heat.
  • Remove the steak from the marinade and pat dry. Grill on one side for about 5 minutes, then flip and continue to grill until medium-rare, another 3 minutes. Let rest 5 minutes before slicing.
  • Preheat the oven to 250 degrees F.
  • Heat the tortillas over a direct flame until the desired char is reached on both sides. Place in a covered pan and keep warm in the oven.
  • Slice the skirt steak against the grain. Make tacos with the steak and Avocado Salsa, then garnish each with Shallot Rings and cilantro leaves.
  • Mix together the cilantro, garlic, jalapeno and onion on a cutting board. Add the lime juice and salt and continue mincing until combined. Add this mixture to the halved avocado flesh in a bowl and mash with a fork until the avocados are broken down and everything is combined.
  • Soak the shallots in the buttermilk in a bowl for up to 30 minutes. Preheat 3 inches oil in a large Dutch oven to 375 degrees F.
  • Place the grits in a large paper bag. Pour off the buttermilk from the shallots, then add the shallots to the bag and shake to coat. Add the coated shallots to the oil in batches and fry until crispy, about 2 minutes. Drain on a paper towel-lined plate and season with salt.
