12 corn or flour tortillas
2 medium top sirloin steaks
4 limes
4 Tbs canola oil, divided
1 tsp chipotle powder
1 tsp garlic powder
1/2 tsp cumin
1/2 tsp paprika
1 tsp salt
1/2 tsp black pepper
Freshly ground black pepper
1 medium red, orange and yellow bell pepper, seeded and sliced into 1/2-inch strips
1 medium jalapeño pepper, seeded and sliced thin
1 red onion, sliced
2 avocados, sliced
2 Tbs fresh cilantro, chopped fine
Directions
- Preheat oven to 250 degrees. Wrap the tortillas in foil and place in the oven. Trim steak of excess fat and discard. Using a meat mallet, pound the steak to thin slightly. Place in a shallow dish. Zest two of the limes and set aside. In a small bowl combine the juice of 2 limes and 2 tablespoons of oil. Stir in the chipotle powder, garlic powder, cumin and paprika. Pour the mixture over the steak. Sprinkle the steak on both sides with salt and pepper. Let marinate at room temperature for 30 minutes.
- Heat a cast iron skillet over high heat. Add the remaining oil and sauté the bell peppers, jalapeno and onion for 2 to 3 minutes or until soft. Transfer to a baking sheet and place in the oven to stay warm.
- Add the steak to the skillet and any remaining marinade. Sear on both sides for 2 to 3 minutes per side to medium doneness. Remove from the skillet and let rest for 5 minutes. Slice the meat against the grain into thin slices. Sprinkle lime zest over the meat. Serve on warm tortillas with sauteed vegetables, sliced avocado, lime wedges and chopped cilantro.
