If you want an amazing casual party with easy-to-eat yet delicious food, then make this steak taco. It’s so jam-packed with flavor that it will put your guests on the back of their heels. Really, it’s just the combination of our world-famous marinated skirt steak, tzatziki, and some extras like cilantro, pickled red onions, shredded sharp cheddar cheese, and chopped jalapeños.
The greatest part about this you can (and should) make it all the day before, as you want the steak to marinate and the flavors of the tzatziki to blend. This means on the day of the party, you only need to do a few tasks and you’ll have food for 6 to 60 people.
