3 tbsp fresh lime juice (from about 2 limes)
2 tbsp fresh orange juice
2 tbsp olive oil
3 cloves garlic, minced
1 tsp ground cumin
1 tsp chili powder
½ tsp dried oregano
Ingredient note
Herbs and spices can carry nickel, so a low nickel diet limits them, but the small amount of oregano used to season this recipe is likely fine. If you prefer to always avoid oregano, please tap it and change its rating to Red.
1 tsp kosher salt
½ tsp black pepper

For serving

8 small corn tortillas
½ cup white onion, finely diced
½ cup fresh cilantro leaves, roughly chopped
2 limes, cut into wedges
salsa verde or tomatillo salsa, for serving (optional)

Instructions

1
In a small bowl, whisk together the lime juice, orange juice, olive oil, garlic, cumin, chili powder, oregano, salt, and pepper until combined.
2
Place the skirt steak in a shallow dish or zip-top bag and pour the marinade over it, turning to coat on all sides. Reserve no portion of the marinade — it will be discarded after marinating. Cover and refrigerate for at least 1 hour and up to 4 hours.
