Carne Asada Torta Poc Chuc Torta Recipes

Steps:

• For the carnitas: Preheat the oven to 225 degrees F.
• Place pork butt in a 4-inch-deep roasting pan and coat both sides generously with salt and oregano. Roast fat-side-up 8 hours or up to overnight.
• Chop meat and crispy fat or pull meat with tongs while hot. Pour juices (if you have any!) over pork and reserve for tortas, tacos, burritos or whatever you can imagine.
• For the torta: Lightly spread all four surfaces of torta roll with butter-olive oil spread. Toast all sides on the griddle or in a pan.
• Spread Baja sauce on both halves of the torta. Top with carnitas, queso fresco, jalapeños, avocado, pico de gallo and mixed greens. Cut in half and serve with cabbage and lime salad.
• Combine butter and olive oil until blended.
• Combine mayonnaise, lime juice and salt.
• Mix the onions, tomatoes, cilantro, lime juice and salt well in a bowl and chill.
• Mix cabbage, carrots, cilantro and jalapeños in a bowl. Squeeze key lime over salad and add salt, then toss.

Steps:

• Cut the steak into small bite size pieces.
• Add the parsley, garlic salt, and pepper and coat evenly.
• Heat frying pan on high till hot (water should sizzle on pan).

• Set aside once water has evaporated.
• Spread mayonnaise on bolillo rolls and heat mayonnaise side down on pan until toasty golden brown.

Steps:

• start by making the salsa fresca; combine all salsa ingredients & chill for an hour.
• about 20 minutes before you're ready to cook the meat combine guacamole ingredients with a electric mixer until smooth. i'd suggest bring out the salsa now & hav some tortilla chips for dipping while waiting for the rest of the meal.
• turn oven on 250 for toasting.
• heat beans on med-low until hot.
• in a large skillet or on a bbq cook steaks until light brown on the outside & still slightly pink in the middle -- carne asada should not be dark brown & charred.
• once done let sit for 5 minutes.
• while the meat is resting slice bolillos in half & toast for 4 minutes.
• cut carne asada into small pieces or strips.
• spread one half of the bolillos with guacamole.
• spread the other half with hot beans.
• sprinkle cheese on beans, if using, & top with carne asada, lettuce, salsa fresca & hot sauce, if using.
• close sandwich, press down & cut in half.
