So, to the food...I marinated the beef (I used "flat iron" steak, which was incredibly tender once removed of tendons and silver skin) in a spice paste of olive oil, garlic, paprika, cumin, oregano, lime zest, chili flakes, and salt and pepper--also known as adobo paste. It gave an incredible flavor to the steak. It was spicy, smoky goodness with the clean tartness of the lime zest.
Wifeshow and I made some tortillas (flour) to go with our tacos, and I cannot say enough about the difference between these and what you get at the store. such a better taste and texture. They don't take a lot of time, and they are worth the extra effort. try it, you won't regret.
As far as toppings for the tacos, I wanted to have a nice textural experience so I julienned some red and green cabbage, diced some tomato, and cut some scallions and cilantro. a couple squeezes of lime juice later, and you have yourself a taco better than you can get anywhere. Personally guarantee that...and I have had a lot of tacos. peace
