Spoonacular is a recipe search engine that sources recipes from across the web.

Always read ingredient lists from the original source (follow the link from the "Instructions" field) in case an ingredient has been incorrectly extracted from the original source or has been labeled incorrectly in any way. Moreover, it is important that you always read the labels on every product you buy to see if the product could cause an allergic reaction or if it conflicts with your personal or religious beliefs. If you are still not sure after reading the label, contact the manufacturer.

We also attempt to estimate the cost and calculate the nutritional information for the recipes found on our site. Again, we cannot guarantee the accuracy of this information.

Antipasti on the menu? Try pairing with Sparkling Wine and Sparkling rosé. If you're serving a selection of appetizers, you can't go wrong with these. Both are very food friendly and complement a variety of flavors. You could try Vietti Cascinetta Moscato d'Asti. Reviewers quite like it with a 4.7 out of 5 star rating and a price of about 18 dollars per bottle.

Vietti Cascinetta Moscato d'Asti

Pale sunshine yellow color and slight frizzante, this Moscato d'Asti has intense aromas of peaches, rose petals and ginger. On the palate it is delicately sweet and sparkling with modest acidity, good balance, good complexity and a finish of fresh apricots. Wonderful as an aperitif, perfect accompaniment to Pan-Asian cuisine and lobster as well as pastry, fruit based and creamy desserts and blue cheeses.

Instructions

In a small bowl add all spices and blend together. Place sirloin cuts on a cutting board and season with dry rub on both sides. If you have time, I recommend letting the meat sit and marinade at room temperature before cooking. I often suggest 30 minutes. Put the meat to the side and begin chopping up all of your taco ingredients: onions, tomatoes and pickled jalapeo peppers. Mash guacamole in a small bowl adding a splash of lime juice, garlic powder and salt. Cook your taco shells after your taco condiments are ready and set aside in a 250 degree oven to keep warm. Top shells with a bit of cheese while in the oven. Be sure before putting the meat on the grille that you get your cast iron grill good and hot. Place meat on grill and cook for 3-4 minutes turning diagonally and cooking for another 3-4 minutes before turning over and cooking on the other side. This will give you great criss-cross grill marks. Remove meat immediately and let rest for a few minutes before slicing in 1/4 inch slices across the grain.
