Carne Asada Steak Sandwich With Avocado Salad Recipes

Steps:

• Place the skirt steak in a large glass bowl or resealable plastic bag.
• To make the marinade, add the cilantro, olive oil, orange juice, lime juice, honey, oregano, garlic and serrano chile to a blender. Season with a small pinch of salt and pepper. Blend for 35 to 40 seconds to combine.
• Pour the marinade all over the steak, moving it around to make sure everything is covered. Cover or seal and transfer to the refrigerator and allow to marinate for at least 1 hour, but no more than 6 (too long in the marinade will cause the steak to begin breaking down).
• Preheat a grill or grill pan over medium-high heat.
• When ready, remove the steak from the marinade, letting the excess drip off. Sprinkle generously with salt and pepper and grill about 4 minutes per side for medium.
• Remove to a cutting board and allow to rest for 5 to 7 minutes. Slice the steak against the grain and serve with the lime wedges.

Steps:

• Season steak with salt and pepper. Drizzle with oil and Worcestershire, turning to evenly coat; let stand 10 minutes.
• Heat a large skillet (preferably cast iron) over medium-high. Add steak and cook, flipping once, until seared and medium-rare, 5 to 7 minutes total. Transfer to a plate. Return skillet to medium heat (do not wipe clean). Add 1 cup onion; season with salt and pepper. Cook, stirring occasionally, until translucent, 3 to 4 minutes. Add beans with liquid and 1/3 cup water; simmer until thickened slightly, 5 minutes. Smash with a potato masher or fork until spreadable. Thinly slice steak, then stir steak juices into bean mixture.
• Season tomato and avocado with salt. Spread bean mixture onto rolls. Top with steak, tomato, avocado, remaining 1/2 cup onion, crema, and hot sauce; serve.

Steps:

• Combine mayonnaise, sour cream, 1/2 cup cilantro, green onions, 1 1/2 tablespoon ground chipotle peppers, 1 tablespoon lime juice, garlic basil spread, 1 teaspoon cumin, salt, and black pepper in a bowl. Stir until combined. Cover and refrigerate chipotle mayonnaise for at least 1 hour.
• Combine beef tri-tip, Anaheim chile peppers, onion, red bell pepper, green bell pepper, juice of 1 lime, olive oil, garlic, red pepper flakes, 1 teaspoon cumin, 1 teaspoon ground chipotle pepper, smoked paprika, and Mexican oregano in a large bowl; season with salt and black pepper and toss to combine. Cover and refrigerate beef mixture for at least 4 hours.
• Preheat oven to 500 degrees F (260 degrees C).
• Heat a large pot or Dutch oven over medium-high heat. Add beef mixture and cook, stirring constantly, until onions soften and become golden and beef browns, 15 to 20 minutes. Stir in 1 cup chopped cilantro and jalapeno peppers.
• Spread each hoagie bun with 2 tablespoons chipotle mayonnaise. Spoon beef mixture into buns and top each sandwich with 2 ounces Asiago cheese.
• Place sandwiches on a baking sheet and bake in the preheated oven until cheese is melted and bread is toasted and warm, about 5 minutes. Divide fresh avocado, cherry tomatoes, and 1/2 cup cilantro over the 4 sandwiches.

Steps:

• TO make the mayo sauce, mix together mayonnaise, chipotle puree, vinegar and garlic. Set aside.
• Preheat oven to 350°F.
• Season meat with garlic salt and pepper; cook to desired doneness on a grill or in a frying pan with a little oil.
• Slice each telera roll in half horizontally and spread mayo sauce on both halves.
• Place torta halves on cookie sheet and heat in oven until crisp.
• Remove from oven and add two slices of cheese to half of each roll.
• Place carne asada on top of cheese.
• Add tomatoes, onion and lettuce.
• Place avocado slices on the other half of each roll.
• Close halves and serve.

Steps:

• Combine tomato sauce, lime juice, garlic, cumin, salt, black pepper and cayenne in large plastic food storage bag. Add steak; seal bag. Massage bag to coat steak. Refrigerate 8 hours or overnight.
• Heat grill. Grill steak, about 6 minutes per side for medium, until desired doneness, turning halfway through. Let rest then thinly slice.
• To assemble salad, toss spinach, carrot and cheese in large bowl. Top with slices of grilled steak. Drizzle dressing over salad. Garnish with fresh cilantro leaves and squeeze of fresh lime, if desired.

Steps:

• Rinse the onion slices in a strainer under cold running water.
• Pat dry; place in a bowl.
• Cover with the red wine vinegar.
• Set aside for 30 minutes or up to 2 hours.
• Pound the garlic with salt, using a mortar and pestle, to make a paste.
• Add 1 tablespoon of the lime juice and incorporate it into the garlic.
• Slowly add the olive oil, stirring with the pestle to incorporate it.
• (If you don't have a mortar and pestle, this can be done in a food processor.) Spoon the garlic mixture over the steak, spreading it with the back of a spoon.
• Season with salt.
• Turn the meat over and do the same with the other side.
• Combine the mayonnaise, pureed chipotle and sauce and remaining 1 tablespoon of the lime juice in another small bowl.
• Grill or fry the beef over high heat, 3 minutes.
• Turn; cook to medium rare, 1-2 minutes.
• Set aside.
• Cut the rolls in half; spread each half with 1 tablespoon of the chipotle mayonnaise.
• Arrange the avocado slices on the top half of the roll; top with a few onion rings.
• Cut the meat into pieces roughly the size of the bread; arrange on the onion rings.
• Add the bottom half of the roll; press gently to compact everything together.
