SERVES 6 tacos
Ingredients-
- 2 steaks (Sirloin works perfectly, making 6 tacos) 
- 1 tablespoon Cajun spices 
- 1 teaspoon garlic powder 
- 1/2 teaspoon salt 
- 1/2 teaspoon black pepper 
For Avocado Creme:
- 1 avocado 
- 2 tablespoons sour cream 
- Juice of 1/2 lime 
- 1/4 garlic clove, finely grated 
- Pinch of salt and pepper 
For Tomato Salsa:
- 1 tomato, finely diced 
- 1/8 red onion, finely diced 
- 2 tablespoons fresh chopped coriander 
For Taco Shells:
- Mini tortillas (warmed in the oven) 
Instructions-
- Trim all fat from the steaks and coat them evenly with Cajun spices, garlic powder, salt, and black pepper. Set the steaks aside. 
- Prepare the Avocado Creme by blending together the avocado, sour cream, lime juice, finely grated garlic, and a pinch of salt and pepper. Taste and adjust the seasoning as needed. 
- Create the Tomato Salsa by finely dicing a tomato, red onion, and fresh coriander. 
- Warm the mini tortillas in the oven, creating a perfect vessel for your taco fillings. 
- In a hot pan, cook the seasoned steaks for about 3-4 minutes per side for medium-rare. Start cooking in oil, then add butter for the last 2 minutes of cooking. To ensure it's cooked to your liking, you can cut into the steak, which you'll do anyway before serving. Allow the steak to rest for 5 minutes before cutting it fully to serve. 
- Assemble the tacos by placing slices of the Cajun-seasoned steak into the warmed tortillas. Top with avocado creme and tomato salsa for a burst of flavour and texture. 
- Serve and enjoy!
