Recipe type: Main
Serves: 8 tacos
Ingredients
  • For the steak and mango adobe sauce:
  • 1½ lb. flank steak
  • 1 can chipotle peppers in adobe sauce (7 oz.)
  • 3 tablespoons coconut sugar or brown sugar
  • 3 tablespoons red wine vinegar
  • juice of 1 lime
  • ½-3/4 teaspoon salt
  • ¼ cup grape juice
  • ¼ cup water
  • ¼ cup thinly sliced dried mangoes
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil
  • Additional taco ingredients:
  • 8 corn tortillas
  • sour cream
  • shredded cheese
  • diced tomatoes
  • guacamole or sliced avocados
  • cilantro
  • lettuce
  • salsa
  • other toppings of choice
Directions
  1. Place steak in a ziploc bag and empty adobe sauce to bag. Add coconut sugar, red wine vinegar, and lime juice. Allow to marinate for at least 30 minutes. Chill in fridge and remove 15 minutes prior to cooking. Remove steak from bag, saving sauce inside, and season both sides of steak with salt.
  2. Once ready to cook, heat 2 tablespoons of olive oil in a cast iron skillet over medium heat. Once skillet is hot enough that a drop of water sizzles, place steak in skillet. Reduce heat to just below medium and cook for 4-6 minutes on each side, depending on preference of doneness. I cooked mine for 4½ minutes on each side for medium.
  3. Remove steak and allow to rest on a plate for 5-10 minutes before cutting so juices may redistribute. Save drippings in pan.
  4. While steak is resting, make sauce. Strain seeds and chipotle peppers from sauce left in bag and discard. Add grape juice, water, and sliced dried mango to strained sauce. Pour into cast iron skillet with drippings from steak. Simmer for 5 minutes over medium low, stirring occasionally until sauce has reduced to liking.
  5. After steak has rested, cut into strips across the grain. Assemble tacos on warm corn tortillas with meat, adobe sauce, and other desired toppings.
