Ranch Style Brisket Tacos with Cowboy Salsa & Pickled Onions
How to Cook Brisket Tacos with Salsa Verde & Pickled Onions:
Brisket Tacos:
- Get that skillet hot, toss in the brisket. Add a little beef broth to keep it juicy. Warm it up.
- Heat those tortillas until they're just right.
- Pile on that brisket, top with salsa, and sprinkle on the onion and cilantro. Serve with those pickled red onions and a lime wedge.
Cowboy Salsa:
- Boil the tomatillos, garlic, and chiles. Cook until tomatillos are a pale green.
- Blend those up with half a cup of the water they were boiled in. Toss in cilantro, onion, and salt.
- Heat oil in a pan, pour in the salsa, and simmer for about 7 minutes. Let it cool before serving.
Pickled Red Onions:
- Toss those onion slices in a jar.
- Mix vinegar, sugar, salt, and peppercorns. Zap in the microwave for 30 seconds. Add water, and heat again for a minute.
- Pour over the onions. Let 'em sit for about an hour.
