Tri Tip Asada Tacos

Posted in : Beef on December 13, 2020 by : Brian Tags: BBQ

Perfect for leftover tri tip, or fresh cooked carne. The secret to these tacos is good quality meat, and the homemade red and green salsas.

Leftover Tri Tip, or Flank Steak
Uncooked Corn Tortillas (found in the refrigerated section of most grocery stores)
Olive Oil
Salt/Pepper/Garlic Powder
1 White Onion (diced)
1 bunch Cilantro (diced)

Red Sauce:
1 c Dried Red Chili
4 Stewed Tomatillos, plus 2 cups stewing liquid
1 Stewed Tomato, plus 1/2 cup stewing liquid
2 cloves Garlic
1/4 c Salt

Green Sauce:
4 Avocados
3 Serrano Peppers
1 tbsp Cilantro
3 cloves Garlic
1/2 tbsp Salt
1/2 c Water

FOR SAUCES:
Add all ingredients to a blender, and blend until smooth.

FOR CARNE:
If using leftover tri tip, dice and saute in olive oil to reheat, seasoning with salt/pepper. If using fresh flank steak, season with Susie Q and grill over oak wood or charcoal, then dice.

Cook tortillas in an ungreased pan. Serve tacos with diced onions, cilantro, red and green sauces.
