minutesIngredients
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.
