Chipotle Flank Steak Tacos With Pineapple Salsa

This recipe is from Eatingwell.com. My family loves this recipe. It is super simple to make and it is low-fat. Great summer time meal. We do not grill the pineapple. We leave it fresh and add it to the dish.

• Ready In: 45 mins
• Serves: 6
• Yields: 12 Tacos

Ingredients

• 12  corn tortillas
• 1  teaspoon extra virgin olive oil
• 1  teaspoon  dried chipotle powder, plus
• 1  pinch  dried chipotle powder, divided
• 1  teaspoon kosher salt, divided
• 1  lb  flank steak, trimmed of fat
• 1  fresh pineapple, peeled, cored and cut small chunks
• 1  red bell pepper, finely diced
• 1⁄2 cup red onion, minced
• 1⁄4 cup fresh cilantro, chopped
• 2  tablespoons red wine vinegar

Directions

1. Preheat grill to high. Stack tortillas and wrap in heavy-duty foil.
2. Combine oil, 1 teaspoon powdered chipotle and 1/2 teaspoon salt in a small dish. Rub into both sides of steak. Place the tortilla stack on the coolest part of the grill or upper warming rack, if possible, and heat, flipping once, until warmed through and very pliable. Meanwhile, grill the steak for 4 to 6 minutes per side for medium, or until desired doneness. Grill pineapple rings until moderately charred, 1 to 2 minutes per side. Remove the tortillas, steak and pineapple from the grill. Let the steak rest for at least 5 minutes before very thinly slicing crosswise into strips.
3. Meanwhile, dice the pineapple and transfer to a medium bowl. Add bell pepper, onion, cilantro, vinegar, the remaining pinch of chipotle and the remaining 1/2 teaspoon salt; toss to combine. Serve the sliced steak in the warm tortillas with the pineapple salsa.
