5 from 1 rating

Ingredients

  • 8 corn tortillas
  • Nonstick cooking spray
  • 1 pound flank steak marinated overnight using a half-batch of this Alton Brown recipe
  • 1 can black beans, drained 15.5 ounces (reserve 1-1/2 tablespoons liquid from can)
  • 2 tablespoons pickled jalapeños
  • 2 cups shredded iceberg or romaine lettuce
  • 1 cup crumbled queso fresco
  • 1 cup guacamole prepared using your favorite recipe
  • Hot sauce
  • Lime wedges for serving (optional)

Instructions

  • Preheat oven to 400 degrees F. Spray both sides of tortillas with cooking spray; place on rimmed baking pan. Bake 10 to 12 minutes or until very crispy, turning once.
  • Meanwhile, preheat grill for direct grilling over medium-high heat. Remove steak from marinade; discard marinade. Grill steak 8 to 10 minutes or until internal temperature reaches 135 degrees F for medium-rare, flipping once halfway through cooking. Transfer to plate; let rest at least 5 minutes before slicing.
  • Place beans and their liquid, and jalapeños in food processor; process until smooth. Microwave bean mixture 60 seconds or until hot.
