Instructions
-
If necessary, trim membrane from the steaks by pulling it away in one piece. Place the steaks in a baking dish, rub with the garlic and oil, and let marinate, chilled, for at least 30 minutes and up to 1 day.
-
Prepare a grill or heat a broiler.
-
Season the steaks generously with coarse salt and grill them over glowing coals or direct heat on a gas grill for about 3 minutes on each side for medium-rare. (Alternatively, broil the steaks 3 inches from the heat for about 4 minutes on each side.) Transfer the steaks to a platter and drizzle with lime juice.
-
Let the steaks stand, loosely covered with foil, for 5 minutes. Cut them diagonally across the grain into thin slices.
-
Make tacos with the accompaniments.
-
Accompaniments: Warm corn or flour tortillas, Charred Spring Onions (recipe follows).
