Korean Skirt Steak Tacos w/ Lemon-Scallion Relish

Whisk together soy sauce, sesame oil, brown sugar, ginger, and garlic. Grate half the onion into the marinade.

Marinate skirt steak in an air tight plastic bag overnight, or at least for 2-4 hours.

Pat steak dry with paper towels. Season with onion powder, garlic powder, and black pepper. Let steak sit at room temperature for 1 hour.

Cut the other half of the onion to a small dice.

In a separate bowl, combine scallions, onions, lemon zest, and half the juice of the lemon. Reserve other half of lemon for another use. Add a pinch of salt. Let relish sit to marinate.

Season steak with a tiny pinch of salt on each side.

Heat oil in a cast iron pan. Sear steak on each side for approximately 3 minutes on each side over medium-high heat, or until desired doneness.

Let steak rest, tented with foil for 3-4 minutes.

Slice against the grain and serve with chihuahua cheese and scallion relish.
