This is the last of the challenges with Kraft Fresh Take, the last few I shared were Country Style Sloppy Joes and Smokey Mesquite BBQ Chicken Wings!
This last recipe was inspired by my Pinterest Board. I am a steak girl…I love it. It’s one of those things I can’t live without; however, I only have it occasionally. I thought a great way to add a little steak into something we normally do not have steak in would be with these Smokey Mesquite Steak Tacos.
I wanted to focus on a recipe that is family friendly, burst with flavor, and is colorful. One of my family friendly elements is being able to let the kids build their own taco. That’s always nice in our family and usually if the family can build their own they are more likely to all eat it and not be quite so picky!
The key element to these steak tacos is the Kraft Fresh Take! That provided both the breading and cheese for the steak.
Next up, another key element the steak of course! I typically just go with a thin steak. This time I went with a thin round steak, flank steak also works nicely.
At this point, I mixed the Fresh Take breadcrumbs in a bowl with 1/4 cup of water. I had already sliced the steak, then I dipped it into the breading and tossed it in a sprayed skillet. We reserved the Fresh Take cheese to top the tacos with later.
I let this simmer for about 5-10 minutes until the steak was cooked to our preference. Be sure to continue to turn so that it does not burn the bottom of the skillet.
Once the steak was done we simply built our tacos around our favorite toppings! The best part? Instead of topping it with taco sauce or salsa, we loaded on the BBQ sauce!
