Ingredients

• 1 pound flank steak
• 2 tablespoons olive oil
• 2 tablespoons lime juice
• 1 teaspoon ground cumin
• 1 teaspoon smoked paprika
• 1 teaspoon garlic powder
• 1 teaspoon chili powder
• 1 teaspoon salt
• 0.5 teaspoon black pepper
• 4 large flour tortillas
• 0.5 cup fresh cilantro, chopped
• 2 cups shredded lettuce
• 1 cup diced tomatoes
• 1 cup shredded cheddar cheese
• 0.5 cup sour cream
• 1 sliced avocado
• 0.5 cup red onion, thinly sliced
• 1 jalapeño, thinly sliced (optional)

Directions

Step 1

In a small bowl, mix together olive oil, lime juice, ground cumin, smoked paprika, garlic powder, chili powder, salt, and black pepper to create a marinade.

Step 2

Place the flank steak in a shallow dish or a resealable plastic bag. Pour the marinade over the steak, ensuring it is fully coated. Cover or seal and marinate in the refrigerator for at least 30 minutes, or up to 4 hours for maximum flavor.

Step 3

Heat a grill pan or skillet over medium-high heat. Once hot, add the marinated steak and cook for 4-5 minutes per side for medium-rare, or until the desired doneness is reached. Adjust cooking time as needed based on steak thickness.

Step 4

Transfer the cooked steak to a cutting board and let it rest for 5 minutes before slicing it thinly against the grain.

Step 5

Warm the flour tortillas in a dry skillet or microwave to make them pliable.

Step 6

To assemble each wrap, lay a warm tortilla flat and layer shredded lettuce, diced tomatoes, sliced steak, shredded cheddar cheese, and fresh cilantro in the center. Add sour cream, sliced avocado, red onion, and jalapeño slices, if desired.

Step 7

Fold in the sides of the tortilla and roll it up tightly to create a wrap. Repeat with the remaining tortillas and ingredients.

Step 8

Serve the Mexican Steak Wraps immediately with lime wedges on the side for an extra burst of citrus flavor. Enjoy!
