A note about serious food allergies

Think outside the box. No, not outside that wonderful box of ingredients and instructions we send you every week. That's the good box. We're asking you to think outside that box that says tacos have certain flavors and ingredients. Tacos are too versatile for such a limited vision! Here, we've coated steak strips in tangy-sweet teriyaki and Sriracha and topped them with a spicy slaw and pickled cucumbers and shallots, for an extra-exciting not-so-square crunch. Think outside the box, and then make sure this meal goes inside your box. Tip: Want the best shave for your cucumber? Shave to the seeds, then rotate the cucumber.

  1. 1

    Prepare the Ingredients

    Peel cucumber and, using peeler, shave into long ribbons, stopping when you reach seeds. Discard end. Having trouble making ribbons? Feel free to instead cut cucumber into 1/4" rounds.

    Peel and halve shallot. Slice halves into thin strips.

    Halve lime. Cut one half into wedges and juice the other half.

    Separate steak strips into a single layer and pat dry.

  2. 2

    Pickle the Vegetables

    Combine cucumber ribbons, shallot, 1 Tbsp. lime juice (reserve remaining for slaw), and 1 Tbsp. water in a mixing bowl until completely coated. Set aside to pickle, at least 10 minutes.

    While cucumber pickles, make slaw.

  3. 3

    Make the Slaw

    In another mixing bowl, combine slaw mix, mayonnaise, half the Sriracha (to taste, reserve remaining for steak strips), and 1 tsp. remaining lime juice. Set aside.

  4. 4

    Cook Steak Strips and Warm Tortillas

    Heat 2 tsp. olive oil in a medium non-stick pan over medium-high heat. Add steak strips to hot pan and stir occasionally until no pink remains and steak reaches a minimum internal temperature of 145 degrees, 4-6 minutes.

    Remove from burner. Stir in teriyaki glaze and remaining Sriracha (to taste). Rest, 3 minutes.

    While steak strips rest, wrap tortillas in a damp paper towel and microwave until warm, 30-60 seconds. Alternatively, place a medium non-stick pan over medium-high heat. Add tortillas, one at a time, to hot, dry pan. Heat undisturbed, 30-45 seconds per side. Remove from pan.
