Ingredients Equipment Method Notes

Ingredients
  

  • 2 teaspoons paprika
  • 4 tablespoons chili powder
  • 1 teaspoon garlic powder
  • 1 teaspoon onion powder
  • 1 teaspoon oregano
  • 2 teaspoons salt
  • 3 teaspoons cumin
  • 6 steaks
  • Canola oil
  • Soft corn tortillas
  • Oil

Equipment

  • Bowl
  • Skillet
  • Wooden spoon

Method
 

  1. Mix all the condiments in the bowl.
  2. Let the mix rest in a container for 6 months or more. The longer the time, the more flavorful your seasoning will be.
  3. Add canola oil to a skillet and cook the steaks on both sides.
  4. Mix the two to three tablespoons of seasoning with a cup of water. Pour the seasoning on the steak. Cook everything until the liquid is hardly visible.
  5. Warm the tortillas on a comal or on another skillet.
  6. Remove the steaks from the skillet. Cut them into medium size pieces.
  7. Place the steaks on the tortillas and you're all set.
  8. Serve the tacos with beans or pico de Gallo.

Notes

To make sure that the seasoning is kept fresh, choose a container with a lid that closes hermetically. Keep the container in a place with a homogeneous room temperature, where it is neither too hot nor cold. Accordingly, the kitchen might not be the best place to store the seasoning.
