Method

  1. 1 Prepare the marinade by mixing lemon juice, orange juice, minced garlic, cumin powder, oregano, salt, and pepper.
  2. 2 Marinate the thinly sliced beef in the mixture for 30 minutes.
  3. 3 Grill the meat over hot coals for 3 minutes on each side until seared on the edges but still juicy on the inside.
  4. 4 Grill the whole scallions until they are soft and slightly charred.
  5. 5 Let the meat rest for 5 minutes, then slice it thinly and wrap it in tortillas with cilantro and lime.

With an appliance

  • Oven 18 min

    Replace step 3: spread the beef on the racks in the oven at 245 degrees for 5 minutes and rotate the tray after 3 minutes; the meat will sear evenly, requiring less constant monitoring but without the smoky charcoal smell.
