one lime -- juice of
2 tablespoons vegetable oil
2 garlic cloves
1/2 teaspoon ground cumin
1/2 jalapeno -- seeded
1/4 cup cilantro leaves
1 pound trimmed skirt steak
salt and freshly ground pepper
twelve 7-inch flour tortillas -- warmed

sour cream
sliced red onions

In a food processor or blender combine the lime juice, oil, garlic,
cumin, jalapeno and cilantro leaves and process until pureed.
Alternatively, combine the lime juice and oil in a bowl. Finely chop
together the garlic, cumin, jalapeno and cilantro and whisk into the
juice and oil mixture. Pour the mixture over the steak and allow to
marinate for 30 minutes.

Preheat charcoal grill or stovetop grill pan. Season the steak with
salt and pepper. Grill the steak for 2 to 3 minutes per side or until
cooked to desired degree of doneness. Transfer the steak to a cutting
surface and allow to stand for 5 to 8 minutes. Cut steak across the
grain into thin slices or chop into 1/2-inch pieces. Serve immediately
with warm tortillas and accompaniments.
