STEAK RANCHEROS

Great rancheros sauce in which beef cutlets are sauteed. Serve over rice as these are very saucy and the sauce is amazing. Alternatively can serve sauce over grilled steak.

Yield 4 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 13

8 ounces chopped tomatoes (canned)
1/2 cup chicken broth
1/4 onion
2 serrano peppers, stem removed
2 jalapenos, stem removed (use less if you don't like things too spicy)
1/4 cup fresh cilantro
2 garlic cloves
1/2 teaspoon dried basil
1/2 teaspoon dried oregano
1 tablespoon chipotle hot sauce
salt and pepper
1 teaspoon vegetable oil
4 (1/4 lb) cube steak

Steps:

  • Combine all ingredients except oil and beef in blender or food processor until very smooth. It will be a thin sauce.
  • Heat oil in skillet until very hot. "Fry" the sauce stirring constantly. Beware of splatters. Cook down about 10 minutes.
  • Place steaks in pan with sauce and cover with sauce. Place lid on skillet. Simmer on medium covered about 15-25 minutes until cooked through. Periodically can spoon more sauce over meat.
  • Serve over rice. I particularly like Goya's Spanish Rice.

Yield Makes 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 8

8 ounces flank steak
1/4 teaspoon salt
Olive oil cooking spray
4 eggs
4 small whole-grain soft tortillas
1 cup cooked lentils
2 thin slices pepper-jack cheese
4 tablespoons salsa, divided

Steps:

  • Heat a skillet over high heat. Sprinkle steak with salt; coat both sides with cooking spray and place in skillet. Reduce heat to low; cook, turning once or twice, until steak is well browned and center is pink, about 15 minutes. Transfer to a cutting board. Carefully wipe skillet; coat with cooking spray. Cook eggs over high heat sunny-side up, 3 minutes. Toast tortillas in a toaster oven; transfer 1 tortilla to each of 4 plates. Top each with 1/4 cup lentils, 1/2 slice cheese, 1 tablespoon salsa and 1 egg. Thinly slice steak; divide evenly among plates and serve.

Tips:

  • For the best flavor, use high-quality flank steak. Look for a steak that is well-marbled and has a deep red color.
  • Be sure to slice the steak against the grain before cooking. This will help to tenderize the meat and make it more flavorful.
  • Don't overcrowd the pan when cooking the steak. This will cause the meat to steam instead of sear, resulting in a less flavorful steak.
  • Let the steak rest for a few minutes before slicing and serving. This will allow the juices to redistribute throughout the meat, resulting in a more tender and flavorful steak.
  • Serve the steak with your favorite toppings, such as guacamole, salsa, sour cream, or cheese.

Conclusion:

Steak rancheros is a delicious and easy-to-make dish that is perfect for a weeknight dinner.
