Author: Michele Rosen
Prep Time: 30 minutes
Cook Time: 12 minutes
Servings: 8 tacos [x3 for us, use 3 lbs steak, mix with cali rice]

Ingredients
1 1/2 pounds flank steak or skirt steak
Grated zest of one lime
1/3 cup fresh lime juice 2-3 limes
3 Tablespoons avocado oil or olive oil
2 teaspoons coconut aminos
1 teaspoon chili powder [optional: nightshade]
1/2 teaspoon smoked paprika [optional: nightshade]
1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
1/2 teaspoon cinnamon
Sea salt and black pepper
Olive oil or avocado oil for the grill or skillet
8 Cassava Flour Tortillas or other grain free tortillas [corn tortillas]
1 red onion diced
1 large avocado diced (wait until just before serving)

Additional optional toppings fresh salsa, dairy free queso (like Siete Foods) or dairy free sour cream (like Kite Hill)

Cheese Sauce:
1 1/2 cups cashews no need to soak
1/4 cup fresh lemon juice about 2 lemons
1/2 cup water
1/4 cup olive oil or avocado oil
2 tsp garlic powder
1 tsp sea salt
3 Tbsp nutritional yeast

Instructions
1. Place the steak in a large shallow bowl. Whisk together the lime zest and juice, oil, coconut aminos, and spices and pour over the steak.
2. Turn the steak a couple of times, with tongs, to fully coat, then sprinkle both sides generously with sea salt and black pepper.
3. Allow the steak to marinade for about 30 minutes at room temperature, OR cover and refrigerate for an hour or longer.
4. Preheat your grill, grill pan or cast iron skillet to medium high heat and brush with oil. Once sizzling hot, add the steak (lightly shake off excess marinade, leaving some on) and cook to desired doneness, about 10-12 minutes total depending on the thickness of your cut of steak.
5. Transfer the cooked steak to a cutting board, cover lightly with foil to keep warm, and allow it to sit while you heat your tortillas.
6. Brush your grill or skillet with more oil and heat your tortillas for 30-45 seconds on each side, or until softened. Lay the tortillas on a platter, or individual plates. Thinly slice the steak and arrange it over the tortillas followed by the avocado, onions and any additional toppings you choose (see ingredients).
7. Combine cheese sause ingredients in blender and serve with tacos [optional]
8.Serve right away, with lime wedges, and enjoy!
