Tri Tip Tacos

Get ready to savor the juicy flavor of grilled tri tip, complemented by the delicious sweetness of sautéed peppers and onions. Let’s dive into the recipe and discover how to create these delectable tacos!

Ingredients:

1 lb tri tip steak
2 tablespoons olive oil
1 teaspoon garlic powder
1 teaspoon ground cumin
1 teaspoon chili powder
Salt and pepper to taste
2 bell peppers (red and green), sliced
1 large onion, sliced
8 small tortillas (corn or flour)
Fresh cilantro, for garnish
Lime wedges, for serving

Instructions:

Start by marinating the tri tip steak. In a small bowl, combine the olive oil, garlic powder, cumin, chili powder, salt, and pepper. Rub this mixture all over the tri tip and let it marinate for at least 30 minutes, or up to overnight in the refrigerator for maximum flavor.
Preheat your grill to medium-high heat. Once hot, place the marinated tri tip on the grill. Cook for about 6-8 minutes on each side for medium-rare, or adjust the time to your desired doneness. Once cooked, remove the steak from the grill and let it rest for 10 minutes before slicing.
While the steak is resting, grill the sliced peppers and onions. Toss them in a bit of olive oil, salt, and pepper. Grill for about 5-7 minutes until they are tender and slightly charred.
Slice the tri tip into thin strips against the grain. To assemble the tacos, warm the tortillas on the grill for about 30 seconds on each side.
Fill each tortilla with slices of tri tip, followed by the grilled peppers and onions. Garnish with fresh cilantro and serve with lime wedges on the side.

These Tri Tip Tacos are a flavorful and satisfying dish that everyone will love. Enjoy every bite wrapped in your favorite tortilla and topped with a squeeze of fresh lime!
