If you're hosting a party for a large crowd at home, tacos are the perfect treat! Firstly, everyone loves tacos. Secondly, you can simply set up a taco bar, offering a choice of beef or shrimp for the filling, and let your guests build their own tacos. Grill some shrimp and steak and set out bowls with a stack of tortillas and other traditional taco toppings, such as shredded iceberg lettuce, shredded cheese, jalapeño rings, chopped fresh herbs, and sauces. This recipe is designed for a crowd, but can be easily scaled down.

    Step 1
  • Heat two very large grill pans over high heat. In a bowl, combine the coarse salt, oregano, chili powder, black pepper, cumin, garlic powder, and cayenne pepper.
  • Step 2
  • Place the steak cubes and shrimp in separate large bowls. Sprinkle evenly with the spice mixture and toss to coat the steak and shrimp well.
  • Step 3
  • Add a little oil to the skillets and, working in batches, fry the shrimp in one pan until they're pink and white, and the steak in another pan until medium-rare, 3-5 minutes per batch. Wipe out the skillets and fry the remaining meat and shrimp. Serve with sides and taco shells of your choice.
