2 OZ / 60 ML fresh lime juice
2 TBSP soy sauce
2 TSP ground cumin
2.5 TSP fine sea salt, divided
1 TSP black pepper
16 OZ / 455 G skirt or flank steak
9 OZ / 250 G all-purpose flour
2 OZ / 50 G lard or shortening

4 TBSP preferred vegetable oil, divided
7 OZ / 200 G red bell pepper
7 OZ / 200 G green bell pepper
1 TSP dried oregano
Optional: shredded Cheddar cheese
sour cream or Mexican crema
Directions
Cut onion into quarters, then peel and cut out the root end. Peel the garlic cloves. Add onion, garlic cloves, cilantro, lime juice, soy sauce, cumin, salt and pepper to the mixing bowl. Blend for 8 seconds / speed 10.
Scrape marinade into a gallon-sized zip-top bag set inside a medium bowl. Add steak, turn to coat with marinade, seal the bag, and refrigerate at least 4 hours and up to overnight. Wash and dry mixing bowl.
For the tortillas, add flour, lard or shortening, salt, and baking powder to the mixing bowl. Mix for 10 seconds / speed 7. Scrape down the sides of the mixing bowl.
Add hot water to mixing bowl and mix for 10 seconds / speed 7.
Knead for 1 minute / speed 3. Transfer dough to a large bowl, cover with plastic wrap, and let rest for 30 minutes.
Preheat oven to 80°C (175°F). Divide dough into 8 equal-sized pieces. Roll each piece into a ball, then use a rolling pin to roll each dough ball into a thin 15-18cm (6-7") round.
Heat a large cast-iron or non-stick skillet over medium heat until hot. Cook one tortilla at a time until brown spots appear on both sides, about 30 seconds per side. Stack tortillas and keep warm in oven while preparing the filling.
Remove steak from marinade, allowing excess to drip off. Pat dry with paper towels, then thinly slice against the grain.
With the butterfly whisk inserted, add the sliced steak and 2 tablespoons of oil to the mixing bowl. Cook the steak with measuring cup removed for 11 minutes / 250°F|120°C / speed 1. Transfer steak to a medium bowl and cover to keep warm. Discard meat juices, and rinse and dry mixing bowl.
Add remaining 2 garlic cloves to mixing bowl along with remaining 2 tablespoons oil. Chop for 5 seconds / speed 7.
Sauté for 2 minutes / 250°F|120°C / speed 1.
Deseed and thinly slice the red and green bell peppers. Cut the remaining onion in half, peel, and thinly slice.
With the butterfly whisk inserted add the bell pepper, onion, oregano and salt to mixing bowl. Cook for 12 minutes / 250°F|120°C / speed 1. Thinly slice the cooked steak again and toss to the cooked vegetables to the beef.
Serve filling with warm tortillas, cheese, and sour cream or crema. Enjoy your meal!
