Ingredients

  • 2 steaks
  • 8 medium tortillas
  • ½ cup chimichurri sauce
  • 1 avocado chopped in small pieces
  • 1 cup tomatoes chopped
  • 1 cup lettuce roughly chopped
  • ½ cup feta cheese crumbled
  • 1 lime cut into wedges

Instructions

  • Cook the steaks: Using a grill or a skillet. Cook the steaks to your preferred temperature and let them rest for 10 minutes.
  • Toast tortillas: Toast tortillas in a hot skillet for about 30 seconds per side or until it starts to brown and get golden. I didn't use any olive oil or butter, but you can brush a bit of butter or olive oil in the skillet.
  • Assemble the tacos: Slice the steak into thin strips. Place a few steak strips on a tortilla, then drizzle chimichurri sauce over them. Finish with your favorite toppings and enjoy!

Notes

  1. Leftover steak will last 3-4 days in the fridge. You can enjoy the leftover steak cold in future tacos if you don't want to lose the pink. You can reheat in the microwave or in a skillet, but keep in mind you will likely lose the pink color.
  2. Cooked steak will last 2-3 months frozen. Let it thaw overnight in the fridge before reheating.
  3. If you'd like to freeze chimichurri sauce, it will last up to 3 week in the fridge or 3 months in the freezer.
