Tips:

  • Choose the right steak: Flank steak or skirt steak are great choices for this recipe. They are relatively inexpensive, flavorful, and cook quickly.
  • Tenderize the steak: Pounding the steak with a meat mallet or using a tenderizing marinade will help to break down the tough fibers and make the steak more tender.
  • Cook the steak over high heat: This will help to create a nice crust on the outside while keeping the inside juicy and tender.
  • Don't overcook the steak: Steak is best cooked to medium-rare or medium, otherwise it will become tough and chewy.
  • Let the steak rest before slicing: This will allow the juices to redistribute throughout the steak, resulting in a more flavorful and tender steak.
  • Use a good quality bread: A sturdy bread like a French baguette or a hoagie roll will hold up well to the steak and toppings.
  • Load up on the toppings: This is where you can get creative and customize your sandwich to your liking. Some popular toppings include grilled onions, peppers, mushrooms, cheese, avocado, and salsa.

Conclusion:

Jalapeno steak sandwiches are a delicious and easy-to-make meal that is perfect for a quick lunch or dinner.
