Tools
Directions
- To make the pico de gallo, combine all ingredients in a large bowl and mix well. Refrigerate until ready to serve.
- For the guacamole, place the avocados in a large bowl and mash until a few chunks remain.
- Stir in the diced onion, lime juice, and mayonnaise. Season to taste with salt and pepper. Mix well and refrigerate until ready to serve.
- For the salsa rojo, roast the tomatoes, garlic, and Serrano pepper either on a stovetop/grill or in the oven for 15-20 minutes, until softened and slightly charred.
- Place the guajillo chiles in the blender or food processor and blend until they become a powder.
- Add the roasted tomatoes, pepper, garlic, and cilantro to the blender. Season with salt and pepper then pulse several times until combined but still chunky.
- Preheat grill to 600°F. Rub the ribeyes with some olive oil and season to taste with garlic powder, Lawry’s, and Montreal steak seasoning.
- Cook the ribeyes for about 3-4 minutes then flip and cook for another 3-4 minutes. Remove from the grill and let rest for a few minutes.
- Slice the ribeyes after they’ve rested for a bit and assemble the tacos with a few slices of ribeye and a scoop each of salsa rojo, pico de gallo, and guacamole. Enjoy!
