Sizzling Steak Tacos for a Delicious and Healthy Dinner


When you’re craving something fresh and satisfying, these sizzling steak tacos hit the spot.

Grilled flank steak marinated with smoky spices, paired with charred bell peppers and creamy avocado, creates the perfect balance of hearty and light. The tangy feta, fresh cilantro, and a squeeze of lime tie it all together.

It’s super easy to throw together, whether it’s for a weeknight dinner or a casual weekend gathering.

Start with grilling the seasoned steak, getting those crispy edges while keeping it tender inside. At the same time, let your vegetables get a nice char for extra flavor. Once everything’s ready, thinly slice the steak and pile it onto soft tortillas, layering in the charred veggies and mashed avocado for that creamy contrast.

Top it all off with a sprinkle of feta, minced red onion, and a generous handful of cilantro. Serve with lime wedges and your favorite hot sauce. These tacos are not just a meal—they’re an experience, bringing all the vibrant, smoky, and savory flavors you crave.

Enjoy with a side of rice and beans, or keep it light with a fresh green salad.

Tips and Tricks

Grilling Tips

To get perfect grill marks on your steak and veggies, make sure the grill is hot before placing the food. Don’t move the steak or vegetables too soon; let them sear properly before flipping.

Avocado Prep

Use a spoon to scoop out the avocado flesh after cutting it in half. This method keeps it intact and makes it easier to slice or mash for the tacos.

Spice Mix

Make a larger batch of the spice blend and store it in an airtight container. You’ll have it ready for future meals, saving you time on busy nights.

Resting the Steak

Let the steak rest for at least 5 minutes after grilling. This helps the juices redistribute, making the meat more tender and flavorful.

Serving Suggestions

Serve these tacos with a side of rice and beans or a fresh salad to make a complete meal. Adding a variety of sides keeps the meal balanced and satisfying.

Storing Leftovers

Keep the steak, veggies, and tortillas in separate containers in the fridge. This way, you can reheat and assemble fresh tacos without the tortillas getting soggy.

Ingredients
 

Instructions
 

  • Coat the grill rack or grill pan with nonstick spray.
  • Preheat the gas grill or grill pan to medium-high. If using a charcoal grill, prepare a medium-high fire.
  • Stack the tortillas and wrap them in foil.
  • In a small bowl, combine granulated garlic, salt, chipotle chili powder, and ground cumin.
  • Halve, pit, and peel the avocado.
  • Brush the cut sides of the avocado halves with ½ teaspoon of olive oil. Sprinkle the avocado halves with ¼ teaspoon of the spice blend.
  • Core and seed the red bell peppers. Slice each bell pepper into 6 rings and place them in a large bowl.
  • Halve the scallions crosswise and add them to the bowl with the peppers.
  • Drizzle the vegetables with the remaining 1 teaspoon of olive oil. Toss the vegetables with 1 teaspoon of the spice blend.
  • Rub the remaining spice blend all over the flank steak.
  • Place the packet of tortillas on the grill. Arrange the steak, vegetables, and avocado halves on the grill.
  • Grill the vegetables and avocado until charred, about 2 to 3 minutes per side, then transfer to a plate.
  • Grill the steak to the desired doneness, about 4 to 5 minutes per side for medium-rare.
  • Transfer the steak to a cutting board and let it rest for 5 minutes.
  • Slice the steak very thinly against the grain.
  • Cut each avocado half into 6 pieces. Mash one avocado piece down the center of each tortilla.
  • On each tortilla, layer one pepper ring, two scallion pieces, and about one ounce of steak.
  • Garnish each tortilla with minced red onion, crumbled feta cheese, and torn cilantro. Serve with lime wedges and hot sauce if desired.
