Description

I have had great success preparing tacos this way. I bought this recipe from a taqueria owner (taco restaurant) in Mexico City. I am translating the directions. It can be used for beef, pork, or just about any other type of meat. The spice mix on this recipe gives meat a really excellent flavor.

Ingredient:

  • ½ onion, chopped
  • 2 cloves garlic
  • 2 teaspoons chopped fresh parsley
  • 1 teaspoon dried oregano
  • 1 teaspoon paprika
  • 1 teaspoon anise seed
  • 1 teaspoon ground black pepper
  • ½ teaspoon ground cumin
  • ½ teaspoon dried sage
  • ¼ teaspoon ground thyme
  • 2 bay leaves
  • 5 whole cloves
  • ½ cup soy sauce
  • 1 cup cider vinegar
  • 1 orange, juiced
  • 1 lime, juiced
  • 2 pounds flank steak
  • 1 onion, chopped
  • 2 tomatoes, chopped

  • 3 cloves garlic
  • 1 tablespoon water, or as needed
  • 24 (5 inch) corn tortillas
