Garlic Grilled Flank Steak Tacos

I had a cut of flank steak and some of those adorable street sized tortillas in my refrigerator and this dinner came together easily and was just delicious! 

Look at all that garlicky goodness! It was pretty much impossible not to taste test my fair share of steak slices while prepping the tacos!

You can mix and match the toppings however you prefer - and definitely be sure to slice that gorgeous steak very thinly against the grain. The majority of the time involved in this recipe is hands off while the meat marinades which is crucial to infuse all that wonderful flavor.
