Ingredients

1 pound 1855 Black Angus Beef flap steak, cut into 4 pieces
1/3 cup chopped cilantro
1/4 cup plus 1 tablespoon lime juice
1/4 cup olive oil
3 cloves garlic, minced
1 teaspoon coarse salt
1/2 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
1/2 cup sour cream
1/2 teaspoon ground chipotle
8 (8-inch) corn tortillas
1 large avocado, sliced
2 cups shredded green cabbage
1/4 cup chopped green olives

Instructions

Combine the cilantro, 1/4 cup lime juice, olive oil, garlic and pepper with the steak in a non-reactive dish or resealable plastic bag. Marinate 30 minutes at room temperature.
While steak is marinating, stir together the remaining tablespoon of lime juice, sour cream, and chipotle. Season with a pinch of salt.
Preheat a grill or grill pan to high. Take the steak out of the marinade and pat dry. Sprinkle with the salt and grill 2-3 minutes per side for medium-rare. Let stand 5 minutes before thinly slicing against the grain.
Heat the tortillas on the grill, in a microwave, or in the oven. Serve with the sliced steak, avocado, cabbage, olives, and sour cream mixture.
