SERVINGS Enough to fill 15 tacos, or serve 4 main course portions INGREDIENTS 2 pounds skirt steak 3 cascabel chiles, wiped clean, stemmed, seeded, and toasted 2 guajillo chiles, wiped clean, stemmed, seeded, and toasted 2 pasilla chiles, wiped clean, stemmed, seeded, and toasted 1/2 cup water 1 teaspoon cumin seeds 5 allspice berries 2 cloves 1 one-inch piece Mexican cinnamon stick 5 garlic cloves 8 black peppercorns Adobo can be made several days in advance. If you don&amp;#039;t have cascabels, substitute with 4 chiles de arbol.  Optional ingredients to accompany tacos: Lime wedges, coarse salt, sliced radishes, chopped fresh cilantro, chopped onions, and your favorite salsa. PREPARATION 1. Trim all fat from surface of meat and remove silver skin (thin, whitish-gray membrane). If steak is in 1 piece, cut crosswise in 2, producing a thicker and thinner half. Put in shallow baking pan. 2. To prepare adobo sauce, soak toasted chiles in cold water 30 minutes. Drain well. 3. Put toasted chiles in blender, add remaining ingredients, and blend until fairly smooth. (If puree is too thick, add little bits of water to release contents from blades of blender. Be patient, however, and try to use as little water as possible. The thicker the puree, the better it will stay on meat.) 4. For this next step, you may wear gloves if you like: Rub adobo sauce generously all over skirt steak. Let stand at room temperature 1 hour, or cover and refrigerate up to 1 day. 5. Prepare charcoal fire or preheat gas grill to medium high. Grill steak, turning once, until charred in places and cooked to medium-rare. This takes about 10 minutes for thinner half, slightly longer for thicker half. (Adjust cooking time as necessary for rarer or well-done steak.) Remove to carving board, cover with foil, and let stand 5 minutes. 6. Cut steak against grain into 1/2-inch slices. Pile slices on platter and serve immediately, or divide meat into 4 portions if serving as main course. Back to chef Santibanez&amp;#039;s bio. "^^<http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema#string>
