I always enjoy using the slow cooker or frying pan but steak tacos don’t get much better than when the steak is cooked on the grill. The steak gets its flavor from a delicious marinade. Some of the key ingredients in the marinade include orange juice, lime juice, and cider vinegar. The steak can be marinated anywhere from a few hours to overnight. If you do not have a grill these can be cooked in the broiler instead. I like to add condiments to these tacos such as guacamole, lettuce, tomato, and Monterey jack cheese. Enjoy.

Looks tasty, but I will use Cilantro and onion for garnish instead of lettuce and tomatoe

I've never used those marinade flavors for tacos before. I'm anxious to give it a try.
