Preparation

Step 1

For the larb, heat 1 Tbsp. oil in a skillet over medium. Add onion and garlic; cook until fragrant, about 2 minutes. Add sirloin and tomatillos, increase heat to medium-high, and cook, crushing with a potato masher, until sirloin is cooked through, 5 minutes. Stir in lime juice and cook until absorbed. Off heat, stir in cilantro, scallions, and serrano. Season larb with salt and pepper. For the salad, combine romaine and radishes; toss with vinegar and 2 Tbsp. oil, then season with salt. Divide larb among tortillas and top with salad.
