• Divide the teriyaki sauce into three equal parts, for marinating, basting, and for drizzling as a sauce on the tacos.

Make the Carrots

• Very finely julienne your carrot (see note). Put the prepared carrot into a bowl and set aside.
• In a small saucepan, combine the vinegar, water, sugar, salt, and hot sauce. Stir over medium heat until the sugar is completely dissolved, and the mixture just starts to boil. Remove from the heat, add the ice cubes to help cool down the mixture quickly and stir.
• When the mixture is no longer hot (it can be warm), pour over the carrots and mix. Let the carrots sit at room temperature for at least 1 hour. Then strain the carrots and refrigerate until ready to use. This can be made a few hours and up to a few days in advance.

Prepare the Beef

• Trim your skirt steak of excess fat and membrane. Then cut it into manageable grilling sized pieces (approx the length of a normal steak) and notice the direction of the grain of the meat, which is lengthwise on a skirt steak (you will be slicing across the grain after grilling to serve).
• An hour before grilling, rub the pepper into the meat. Then take ⅓ of the teriyaki and coat and massage it into the meat. Let the meat marinate for an hour.
• Prepare a grill or a grill pan over medium-high heat. Get another ⅓ of the teriyaki sauce ready for basting. Put the steak on the grill and immediately brush on half of your Teriyaki sauce. Flip the steak and baste with the rest of the Teriyaki portioned for cooking. Skirt steak varies in thickness, but generally for a medium-rare cook on skirt steak you should plan on 3 minutes per side or slightly less or more depending on thickness and how you like your beef cooked.
• When the steak is done, let it rest on a cutting board, covered loosely with aluminum foil, for about 5 minutes. Once the tortillas are ready, slice the beef and serve.

Heat the Tortillas u0026 Serve

• You can heat the tortillas, if desired. We prefer to heat them right over a gas burner on our stove, so they develop a bit of black around the edges and in spots for added flavor. You can also wrap in a clean towel and heat them in the oven if you prefer them just warmed. Once they are ready, add some beef, top with carrots, cucumbers, cilantro, green onion, and drizzle with the teriyaki sauce. Enjoy!
