FIESTA STEAK
If your steak is very thick, you may need to add up to eight minutes more in the oven. Let your nose be your guide. This recipe is chock full of vegetables-a great way to get your meat lover to eat vegetables, too! Try this recipe with chicken pieces instead of steak for a change. My aunt swears by kosher salt and freshly squeezed lemon or lime when cooking meat, but I prefer to use sea salt whenever I'm cooking.

MEXICAN BEEF STIR-FRY
This is a very unique stir fry, in that it's served on a bed of shredded lettuce instead of over rice! To save time, you can buy a bag of pre-shredded lettuce. I like 2 or more jalapenos, but I like things spicy. If you'd like, you can garnish with salsa, diced avocados, chopped green onions, and sour cream! I like this served hot, but you can serve it cold as a salad....but I really like it hot over the cold lettuce!

FIESTA STEAK CHILI
This is a basic recipe for non-traditional chili using steak. My wife is allergic to chili powder, so I don't use any in this recipe, but you are welcome to add some if you like. This is a very tame, full-flavor, colorful chili recipe that even the kids will like. There are plenty of other variations that you can use with this basic recipe, please change at will. Things we have tried include adding three or four fresh jalapenos, or adding Tabasco® habanaro sauce, or cilantro, or fresh tomatoes, or using red, yellow, orange, and green peppers, or hamburger instead of a steak or roast. Serve with tortilla chips, cheese and sour cream.

Tips:
- Choose the right cut of steak: Flank steak, skirt steak, or hanger steak are all great options for stir-fries because they are thin and cook quickly.
- Slice the steak against the grain: This will help to tenderize the meat and make it easier to chew.
- Marinate the steak: Marinating the steak in a flavorful marinade will help to add flavor and moisture to the meat.
- Cook the steak over high heat: This will help to sear the meat and prevent it from becoming tough.
- Don't overcook the steak: Steak is best cooked to medium-rare or medium, so as not to toughen it.
- Add vegetables last: Vegetables cook quickly, so add them to the stir-fry last to prevent them from overcooking.
- Use a flavorful sauce: A flavorful sauce will help to bring all the flavors of the stir-fry together.
- Serve immediately: Stir-fries are best served immediately, while the meat is still hot and the vegetables are still crisp.
Conclusion:
Mexican Fiesta Steak Stir-Fry is a delicious and easy-to-make meal that is perfect for a weeknight dinner. The steak is marinated in a flavorful blend of spices, then cooked over high heat until tender. The vegetables are added last and cooked until crisp-tender. The whole dish is then tossed in a flavorful sauce and served over rice. This stir-fry is a great way to get a healthy and delicious meal on the table in no time.
