Categories: Meals

Ingredients

  • 2 tsp. Sriracha
  • 1 Persian Cucumber
  • 1 Shallot
  • 1 Lime
  • 10 oz. Steak Strips
  • 4 oz. Slaw Mix
  • 1 oz. Mayonnaise
  • 2 fl. oz. Teriyaki Glaze
  • 6 Small Flour Tortillas

Directions

  1. Using a peeler, shave cucumber into long, thin ribbons. When you’ve peeled to seeds, turn cucumber a quarter turn, and peel again. Continue peeling and turning until only seeds remain. Discard ends and seeds. Having trouble making ribbons? Feel free to instead cut cucumbers into ¼" rounds. Peel and halve shallot. Slice halves into thin strips. Halve lime. Quarter one half and juice remaining half. Pat steak strips dry.

  2. Combine cucumber ribbons, shallot, 1 Tbsp. lime juice, and 1 Tbsp. water in a mixing bowl. Toss to coat. Set aside at least 10 minutes.

  3. In another mixing bowl, combine slaw mix, mayonnaise, half the Sriracha (to taste, reserve remaining for steak strips), and 1 tsp. lime juice. Set aside.

  4. Heat 2 tsp. olive oil in a medium non-stick pan over medium-high heat. Add steak strips and stir occasionally until browned, 2-5 minutes. Remove from burner. Stir in teriyaki glaze and remaining Sriracha (to taste). While steak strips cook, tortillas on a microwave-safe plate, cover with a moist paper towel, and microwave until warm, 30 seconds. Alternately, wrap tortillas in foil and heat in a 375-degree oven until warm, 4-5 minutes.

  5. Plate dish as pictured on front of card, filling each tortilla with steak strips, slaw mix, and pickled vegetables. Squeeze lime wedges over tacos to taste. Bon appétit!
