Ingredients

Steak:

1 pound skirt steak

2 tablespoons olive oil

2 tablespoons ancho chile powder

Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper

Grilled Avocado-Corn Salsa:

1 ear of corn

1 jalapeño, seeded

1/2 red onion, sliced into 1/2-inch rounds

1 tablespoon olive oil

Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper

2 tablespoons chopped fresh cilantro

1 avocado, diced small

1 lime, zested and juiced

Assembly:

8 mini naan breads, warmed

1/2 cup chipotle mayonnaise, optional

1 cup crumbled queso fresco

Lime wedges, for serving

Directions

  1. For the steak: Heat a grill pan over medium heat. Drizzle the steak with the olive oil and season with the ancho chile powder, 2 teaspoons salt and 1 teaspoon pepper. Grill the steak to the desired temperature, 3 to 4 minutes per side for medium rare. Set aside to rest while you make the salsa.
  2. For the grilled avocado-corn salsa: Brush the corn, jalapeño and red onion with the olive oil and sprinkle with 1 teaspoon salt and 1/2 teaspoon pepper. Grill until the vegetables are lightly charred, about 6 minutes. Slice the corn off the cob and chop the jalapeño and onion. Toss the vegetables with the cilantro, avocado and lime zest and juice in a bowl. Taste and adjust the seasoning as needed.
  3. For the assembly: Slice the steak thinly against the grain. Build a taco by grabbing a warm naan and adding a tablespoon of the chipotle mayo, if using. Top with some of the steak and a spoonful of the salsa. Top with some crumbled queso fresco and serve with a lime wedge.

These were so good! I used marinated flank steak and broiled it in the oven. Roasted the veggies. Everyone loved them! Delish!
