A note about serious food allergies
Think outside the box. No, not outside that wonderful box of ingredients and instructions we send you every week. That's the good box. We're asking you to think outside that box that says tacos have certain flavors and ingredients. Tacos are too versatile for such a limited vision! Here, we've coated steak strips in tangy-sweet teriyaki and hot sauce and topped them with a spicy slaw and pickled cucumbers and shallots, for an extra-exciting not-so-square crunch. Think outside the box, and then make sure this meal goes inside your box. Tip: Want the best shave for your cucumber? Shave to the seeds, then rotate the cucumber.

To ensure food safety, the FDA recommends the following as minimum internal cooking temperatures:
- Steak and Pork 145° F (rest cooked meat, 3 minutes) |
- Seafood 145° F |

If using 20 oz. steak strips, follow same instructions as 10 oz. steak strips, working in batches if necessary.
If using diced chicken breasts, pat dry. Stir occasionally until chicken reaches minimum internal temperature, 5-7 minutes.
If using shrimp, pat dry. Cook until pink and shrimp reach minimum internal temperature, 2-3 minutes per side.

Peel and halve shallot. Slice half into thin strips.

Set aside, at least 5 minutes.Pat steak strips dry. Coarsely chop, then separate pieces.Quick-Pickle the Vegetables
Trim and peel cucumber. Using peeler, shave into long ribbons, stopping when you reach seeds. Discard ends. Having trouble making ribbons? Feel free to cut cucumber into 1/4" rounds instead.
Gently stir cucumber ribbons into mixing bowl with shallot-lime mixture until coated. Set aside to quick-pickle, 10 minutes.While vegetables quick-pickle, continue recipe.Make the Slaw
