Chef’s Tips

  • Flap steak works great for tacos but you can use skirt steak or flank steak as well
  • Pay attention to which way the muscle fibers are going. You will want to cut against the grain for tenderness
  • Cutting steak into smaller pieces will allow it to cook faster and absorb more of the flavors and seasoning
  • If you want even more flavor, let your steaks marinate in the seasoning overnight
