Directions
Instructions
- Dry Rub: Combine Steak Dry Rub ingredients in a small bowl and set aside.
- Street Corn: Put the Mexican Street Corn Salad ingredients in a large bowl and stir to combine. Taste and feel free to add additional chili powder, lime juice, cilantro, etc. as desired. Set aside.
- Prep: Preheat outdoor grill to high heat (500 degrees F) and ensure grates are clean and rubbed with oil. Pat steak dry with a clean paper towel. Rub dry rub over steak as much or as little as you want.
- Grill: Place steaks directly on the hot grill grates over a direct heat for 3-4 minutes per side and then move to indirect heat until the internal temperature reaches approximately 140 degrees F (for medium/medium-rare). Remove from grill and let rest 5-10 minutes.
- Assemble Tacos: Cut cooked steak into cubes, cutting against the grain. Take tortillas and add a few spoonfuls of the elote street corn into the center. Add some steak on top.
- Serve: Enjoy immediately with any additional fresh cilantro on top and a squeeze of lime juice.
