This recipe is awesome!!! I did make some changes, but I don't think it altered the flavor much. I used canned jalapenos instead of fresh. We grilled the steak instead of frying it. Lastly, when I prepared my serving I lightly fried the corn tortilla in vegetable oil,added the filling (steak, onion, mozarella), and then topped it with a 2nd tortilla kind of like a quesadilla. I poured the tomatillo sauce over it. It was absolutely diving. My husband prepared his just like a taco and he enjoyed his a lot as well. Highly recommend this recipe!

These were very good! I took advice from one of the reviews on here and used a jar of Salsa Verde instead of fresh tomatillos and it was GREAT and saved tons of time I think. Will definitely make these again! (Note to myself...use flour tortillas, not corn.)

This was delicious. I too have a hard time finding canned tomatillos and therefore use canned green salsa which is basically the same thing minus the beef broth. If preparing the tomatillo sauce, I would recommend using low sodium beef broth. I also make fresh pico de gallo instead of the listed recommendation. Will make again and again.

I too had a hard time finding the tomatillo so I took the advice of TomatoSue and used the La Victoria Salsa Verde and it turned out great, spicy too. Thank you

The beef was more spicy then I thought it was going to be - a happy surprise. The sauce however was very mild and sort of bland - last minute garlic helped.

This was delicious. The family loved it. I used fresh tomatillos for the sauce. The sauce does need salt but otherwise this is a great recipe. I will make it again.

This was one of the best things I have ever eaten. The flavors were so yummy and fresh. The home made tomatillo sauce was the best part of the dish and not at all hard to prepare. I bought two fresh tomatillos and two fresh jalapenos and through them in the food processor, dumped it into a sauce pan coated with oil, cooked for a few minutes then added the beef broth and cooked it down. Not that hard to do... My husband likes Ortego tacos with lots and lots of cheese and sour cream. He did not even miss his favorites add-ons with all the delicious flavors of this recipe! Thank you for sharing this with us. I am already craving it again it was just so good!!!!!!!!!

I wish I could give you six stars. I had to grind our steak but I still did everything exactly the way you said and it was awesome!!!! Make this for a croud and they will be happy campers indeed. Save this for football get togethers on a sunday. I put sour cream on top of mine too but not hubby's. Dialien thank you so very, very much. I have it printed and saved for lots of uses in the future. (if you can't find the tomatillo's look in the Salsa section of the store that is where I found my roasted ones. They were wonderful. Thanks again for a super winning recipe. Beverly Jane

I only made the beef steak part.. but it was DELICIOUS!!! i served the tacos with the Mexi-Italian Salsa recipe on this site and my the boyfriend could not have been more pleased! he kept on going on and on about how AMAAAZING the meal was! I used deboned beef short ribs so the meat was tender and juicy. I also let the meat marinade for three hours before i popped it onto medium high heat! Warning! Be sure to wear an apron cuz when ur meat is almost done, the black pepper in the pan gets really hot and starts to "jump" out of the pan and onto ur belly, hands, it kinda catches u by surprise at first.. but it's no big deal, doesn't really hurt or anything.. and even if it did, it'd be SOOO WORTH IT.... haha.. thanks for the recipe! ps. we added a LOT more hot pepper flakes to the meat.

These tacos were delicious! For some reason, AllRecipes put fresh tomatillos on my shopping list. I've never cooked with tomatillos before, but the sauce turned out great. I used whole wheat flour tortillas instead of corn, because I don't like corn tortillas. Even my boyfriend loved them...and he prefers ground beef to steak. I will definitely make these again!

We loved this recipe! I followed the recipe exactly except that I used fresh tomatillos and used some crumbled queso fresco as an additional topping. My husband says "without a doubt the best tacos you have ever made."

This is a good recipe, however I would not use canned tomatillos. Tomatillos are easy to roast. Peel wrapper off of them, rinse, place on sheet pan, with cut onions, garlic and several seeded jalapenos. Roast at 400 degrees for aprox 30 min, and viola, yummy

A deelish recipe for the carne asada! I am not a tomatillo fan, and so I used two other optional toppings, fresh tomato salsa or the traditional "Tijuana Taco" syle, finely diced onion, a sprinkle of chopped cilantro, and a dollop of gucamole. The previous post mentions cutting with kitchen shears..try a big ol' sharp cleaver! (If you go to a taco shop you will hear/see it done this way!!) Thanks for the great recipe!

This was relly great. The tomatillo sauce was much better than expected. I added cilantro to it and skipped the step of cooking it down with beef broth-it tasted lovely and fresh to me; also I was in a hurry. I used skirt steak, and we grilled it. It was annoying to cut up but I used kitchen shears. It took longer than expected. Thanks for a lovely recipe.

Fantastic recipe--my boyfriend and I gobbled it up. The only downside is that the steak could have a bit more flavor, but we definitely will be making it again. Edit: Making this for the 3rd time, so I upped the star power!!
