Steak And Bean Torta
- 2 garlic cloves, minced
- 1 teaspoon onion powder
- 1 teaspoon smoked paprika
- 1 teaspoon freshly ground pepper (or more to taste)
- 2 tablespoons oil
- 1 pound sirloin flap steak
- 1/2 cup sherry vinegar
- 1/4 cup water
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 1 teaspoon sugar
- 1 small red onion, thinly sliced
- 1 jalapeno, thinly sliced
- 1 can black beans, rinsed
- 1/4 teaspoon chipotle powder (or chile powder)
- 1/2 teaspoon cumin powder
- 2 teaspoons lime juice
- Soft sandwich rolls
- Salt and pepper to taste
- Avocado, sliced
- Cilantro
- Mexican crema (or sour cream thinned with a bit of milk)
- Mix together the garlic, onion powder, paprika, pepper, and 2 tablespoons of oil. Toss the steak in the marinade to coat and let it sit at room temperature 30 minutes or refrigerate it for up to 8 hours. Heat the grill to medium-high. Season the steak with salt and grill until its internal temperature reaches 125u0b0 F and it is nicely browned. Let the steak rest for ten minutes before slicing it very thinly against the grain.
- Heat the vinegar, water, salt, and sugar in a saucepan. Add the onion and jalapeno and let simmer for a couple of minutes. Set aside to cool.
- Mash the beans with chipotle, cumin, lime, and salt and pepper. Taste the mixture and add salt and acid as needed. Add a spoon or two of water and heat gently before serving.
- Toast the insides of the rolls slightly, then top them with the beans, steak, pickled vegetables, avocado slices, cilantro, and a drizzle of crema.
