Ingredients

cassava tortillas
6
avocado
1 large
bell peppers, thinly sliced lengthwise
3
yellow or red onion, thinly sliced lengthwise
1 large
garlic cloves, minced
4 large
lime juice, freshly squeezed
2 tbsp
olive oil
2 tbsp
coconut aminos
1 tbsp
ground cumin
1.5 tsp
chili powder
1/2 tsp
salt
2 tsp, divided
cilantro, freshly chopped
1/4 cup

Utensils

  • medium bowl
  • freezer bag
  • grill or skillet

Instructions

Gather all ingredients, then season both sides of the steak and set aside. 

In a small dish, mash the minced garlic with 1 tsp of salt to create a paste. In a large, heavy-duty freezer bag, combine the garlic paste, lime juice, oil, coconut aminos, olive oil, cumin, and chili powder, Seal and shake to combine. 

Place the steak, peppers, onion, and cilantro in the bag. Squeeze out the air, and turn to coat the meat and vegetables. Refrigerate for at least two hours, or a maximum of four, allowing everything to marinate. 

Heat up your grill or skillet. Remove the skirt steak from the marinade and place in on a platter, shaking off the liquid and reserving the marinade with the vegetables. 

Heat a large skillet over high heat. Drain the vegetables and cilantro & pat them dry with paper towels. Saute the vegetables until crisp-tender. Remove from the heat. Season to your liking and set aside. 

Grill your skirt steak until medium-rare, about 2-3 minutes per side. 

Serve immediately with warm homemade tortillas, seared vegetables, fresh lime, or any other toppings of your choice.
