Ingredients
- 8 ounces skirt steak
- 4 ounces Guajillo Sauce, recipe follows (store-bought is also fine)
- Vegetable or olive oil, for cooking
- 4 ounces shredded jack cheese
- 2 ounces chopped onion

- Three 6-inch corn tortillas, toasted
- Salt and pepper
- Juice of 1 lime

- 4 cloves garlic
- 1 small onion
- 1/2 teaspoon ground cumin
Instructions
- Marinate the steak in 3 ounces Guajillo Sauce in the fridge for 6 to 8 hours.
- Remove the steak from the marinade, then bring to room temperature and slice into thin pieces. Heat an oiled pan over medium heat, then add the steak and sear 2 to 3 minutes or to your liking. Layer the steak, cheese, onion and cilantro evenly in the tortillas and top with the remaining ounce Guajillo Sauce, along with some salt, pepper and lime juice.
- Boil 3 cups water in a large saucepan. Add the peppers, garlic and onion and boil for an additional 5 minutes. Add the boiled ingredients to a blender along with the cumin and enough liquid to cover, then blend until smooth. Let cool and refrigerate until using.
