how to make it:

Step 1: Prepare Salsa Verde

In medium bowl, toss tomatillos in oil.

Heat large heavy-bottomed skillet over high heat. Cook tomatillos, stirring occasionally, for 6 to 8 minutes or until starting to brown and blister. Let cool slightly.

Transfer tomatillos to blender. Add serrano pepper, onion, cilantro, lime juice, garlic, cumin and salt; pulse until finely chopped.

Step 2: Tomatillo Avocado Salsa

Preheat broiler. Arrange tomatillos, jalapeño and garlic on foil-lined baking sheet. Broil, turning and flipping halfway through the cooking time, for 5 to 7 minutes or until lightly charred and tender. Let cool completely.

Transfer tomatillos mixture to blender. Add avocado, onion, cilantro, lime juice and salt. Pulse until blended.

Step 3: Prepare Steak

Pat steak dry with paper towel. Rub with oil and season with salt, pepper and garlic powder.

Heat cast-iron pan or heavy-bottomed skillet over high heat. Sear steak, flipping once, for 6 to 8 minutes or until browned and cooked to medium rare, or cook to desired doneness. Let rest for 5 minutes before slicing.

Step 4: Warm Tortillas

Meanwhile, warm tortillas according to package directions.

Step 5: Assemble Tacos

Divide steak among warm tortillas. Garnish with radishes, jalapeño, onion and cilantro as desired. Serve with jalapeño, onion, Salsa Verde, Tomatillo Avocado Salsa and lime wedges.

Tip: Substitute flank steak with skirt steak or thinly sliced boneless rib-eye steaks.
