1. Marinate the Bavette Steak:
- In a small bowl, mix together the minced garlic, olive oil, ground cumin, chili powder, salt, pepper, and lime juice.
- Place the Bavette steak in a large resealable plastic bag or shallow dish.
- Pour the marinade over the steak, making sure it’s well-coated.
- Seal the bag or cover the dish and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes, but ideally, marinate it for 2-4 hours for the best flavor.
2. Prepare the Toppings:
- While the steak is marinating, prepare your taco toppings. Dice the tomatoes, shred the lettuce, chop the cilantro, and dice the red onion. Set aside.
3. Grill the Bavette Steak:
- Preheat your grill to medium-high heat. You can also use a stovetop grill pan or a regular skillet if you don’t have a grill.
- Remove the steak from the marinade and let any excess drip off.
- Grill the steak for about 4-5 minutes per side for medium-rare, or adjust the cooking time to your desired level of doneness.
- Remove the steak from the grill and let it rest for a few minutes before slicing it thinly against the grain.
4. Assemble the Tacos:
- Warm the tortillas by placing them on the grill for about 30 seconds on each side or by wrapping them in a damp paper towel and microwaving them for 20-30 seconds.
- Place some sliced Bavette steak on each tortilla.
- Top with diced tomatoes, shredded lettuce, diced red onion, and chopped cilantro.
- If desired, sprinkle with crumbled queso fresco or grated cheddar cheese.
- Add a dollop of sour cream or your favorite salsa on top.
5. Serve and Enjoy:
- Serve the Bavette steak tacos immediately while they’re still warm. Enjoy your delicious homemade tacos!
Feel free to customize your tacos with additional toppings like guacamole, hot sauce, or pickled jalapeños to suit your taste preferences.
