Making delicious skirt steak tacos is easy if you follow these simple steps:
1. Marinate the Steak: In a bowl, combine olive oil, chili powder, cumin, garlic powder, salt, and pepper. Rub this mixture over the skirt steak and let it marinate for at least 15 minutes.
2. Preheat the Grill: Preheat your grill or skillet over medium-high heat.
