A Man Likes His Steak!

There is nothing like a nice grilled steak...Especially in these waning weeks of summer. Here is a recipe for Carne Asada.

Ingredients:

1 teaspoon(s) ground chipotle chili
1 teaspoon(s) ground cumin
1/2 teaspoon(s) dried Mexican oregano, crumbled

1.2 teaspoon of kosher salt

1 large (1 1/4-pound) skirt steak, cut into 4 pieces
3 tablespoon(s) extra-virgin olive oil
1/2 lime
1 large sweet onion, halved, cut into thin strips
1 red bell pepper, seeded, cut into 1/2-inch-wide strips
1 yellow bell pepper, seeded, cut into 1/2-inch-wide strips
1 large poblano or Anaheim chile, seeded, cut into 1/2-inch-wide strips
2 clove(s) garlic, chopped
1/4 cup(s) chopped cilantro
1/2 teaspoon(s) kosher salt
1/4 teaspoon(s) freshly ground pepper
12 corn tortillas, warmed according to package directions
Lime wedges.

Total time should be 36 minutes.
Preparation time should be 20 minutes
Cook time should be 16 minutes

Directions-

Combine chipotle, cumin, oregano, and salt in a small cup. Rub steak pieces with 1 tablespoon of the oil, then with spice mixture. Squeeze juice from lime half over steak pieces. Heat a stove-top grill pan over medium heat.

Heat the remaining 2 tablespoons oil in a large nonstick skillet over medium-high heat. Add onion, bell peppers, and chile; sauté 4 minutes. Add garlic and continue to sauté 4 to 6 minutes, or until crisp-tender. Remove from heat; stir in cilantro and season with kosher salt and pepper.

Grill steaks 3 minutes per side for medium-rare. Remove from grill; let rest 5 minutes. Slice against the grain and serve with pepper mixture, warm tortillas, and lime wedges.

I had this steak at an eatery in Atlantic City , whose name escapes me now and it was delicious..I hope your meal has the same rewarding experience.
