Mexican Street Tacos

Easy, quick, authentic carne asada street tacos you can now make right at home! Top with onion, cilantro + fresh lime juice! SO GOOD!

You truly miss things once they are gone. That’s not just a saying. It’s real life.

I lived a block away from a famous taco truck back in LA. And as much as I loved street tacos, I only went there maybe four times a year.

And now that I’ve moved to Chicago, all I think about is the proximity of that taco truck back home in Los Angeles. If that taco truck were here in Chiberia, I would go four times a day!

But until I get back to LA, here is my rendition of my favorite street tacos.

It’s a quick recipe using a simple marinade for your skirt steak. It just needs 1 hour of marinating before you throw it onto a skillet. From there, you can top off your tacos with diced onion, cilantro and fresh lime juice.

It’s simple, it’s easy and it’s just perfect.
