Preparation facts

Yield: 6 servings

Ingredients

2 boneless beef chuck shoulder steaks, cut 3/4 inch thick (about 1-1/2 pounds)

12 small flour tortillas, warmed

Marinade:

2/3 cup prepared Italian dressing

2 Tbs chopped fresh cilantro

1 Tbs chilli powder

Toppings:

Thinly sliced lettuce, chopped tomato, dairy sour cream, guacamole (optional)

Directions

Combine marinade ingredients in small bowl. Place beef steaks and marinade in food-safe plastic bag; turn to coat. Close bag securely and marinate in refrigerator 6 hours or as long as overnight, turning occasionally.

Remove steaks; discard marinade. Place steaks on grid over medium, ash-covered coals. Grill, uncovered, 14 to 17 minutes for medium rare to medium doneness, turning occasionally.

Carve into thin slices; season with salt. Serve in tortillas with toppings.

To broil, place steaks on rack in broiler pan so surface of beef is 2 to 3 inches from heat. Broil 10 to 13 minutes for medium rare to medium doneness, turning once.
