Surf & Turf Tacos with Chimichurri Aioli and Crispy Onions ### Ingredients:

1 lb steak (your choice of cut)
1 lb shrimp, peeled and deveined
8 small corn tortillas
1 cup fresh cilantro
1/2 cup fresh parsley
3 cloves garlic
1/2 tsp red pepper flakes
1/2 cup olive oil
1/4 cup red wine vinegar
Salt and pepper to taste
1/2 cup mayonnaise
1 tbsp lemon juice
1 cup crispy fried onions

Instructions:

Start by marinating the steak. In a bowl, mix olive oil, red wine vinegar, minced garlic, red pepper flakes, salt, and pepper. Add the steak, ensuring it’s well-coated. Let it marinate for at least 30 minutes.
While the steak is marinating, prepare the chimichurri aioli. In a blender, combine cilantro, parsley, garlic, olive oil, lemon juice, salt, and pepper. Blend until smooth. Mix in the mayonnaise until well combined. Set aside.
After marinating, grill the steak to your desired doneness, about 4-5 minutes per side for medium-rare. Once cooked, let it rest for a few minutes before slicing.
In the same grill or pan, cook the shrimp for about 2-3 minutes on each side, until they are pink and opaque.
Warm the corn tortillas in a dry skillet over medium heat, about 30 seconds on each side.
To assemble the tacos, slice the steak thinly and place it on a tortilla. Top with shrimp, drizzle with chimichurri aioli, and sprinkle crispy onions on top.
Serve immediately, and enjoy the delightful combination of flavors!
