Instructions:
- Marinate the Beef:

- Prepare your street taco-size tortillas by lightly oiling them with cooking oil. Set aside.
- Cook the Beef:
- Heat a skillet over medium-high heat and add the pork lard.
- Once heated, add the marinated beef slices. Cook for 3-4 minutes on each side until they are nicely browned and cooked through.
- Warm the Tortillas:
- In the same skillet, reduce the heat to medium and add the tortillas, warming them for about 30 seconds on each side.
- Assemble the Tacos:
- Place slices of the cooked beef onto each warm tortilla.
- Top with chopped onion and fresh cilantro.
- Serve with Salsa Verde:
- Drizzle your tacos with salsa verde for an extra kick of flavor.
