    Ingredients

    • 0.5 pound skirt steak

    • 4 large eggs

    • 8 small corn tortillas

    • 1 cup chopped cilantro

    • 1 cup diced tomatoes

    • 0.5 cup chopped onions

    • 1 tablespoon olive oil

    • 1 teaspoon salt

    • 1 teaspoon pepper

    • 0.5 teaspoon cumin

    Directions

    • Preheat your grill to medium-high heat. Season the skirt steak with salt, pepper, and cumin on both sides. Let it sit for 5 minutes.
    • Place the steak on the grill and cook for 4-5 minutes on each side until it reaches desired doneness. Remove from heat and let it rest for 10 minutes before slicing.
    • While the steak is resting, heat a pan over medium heat and add olive oil. Crack the eggs into the pan and cook until the whites are set but the yolks are still runny.
    • Warm the tortillas on the grill or in a clean pan until they are soft and pliable, about 1 minute on each side.
    • Slice the steak into thin strips against the grain. Place a few strips of steak and a fried egg on each tortilla.
    • Top each taco with chopped cilantro, diced tomatoes, and chopped onions. Add additional salt or pepper to taste.

    Tip of the Day

    “Always let your meat rest before slicing.”

    Whether you're roasting a chicken, grilling steak, or baking pork tenderloin, letting cooked meat rest for 5–10 minutes before slicing allows the juices to redistribute evenly. This simple step keeps your meat juicy and tender, ensuring every bite is flavorful and moist. Bonus: It gives you a moment to plate your sides or garnish for a perfect presentation!
