Yield 6 people

Number Of Ingredients 11

1 red onion, thinly sliced
1/4 cup red wine vinegar
3 cloves garlic
2 teaspoons salt, divided
2 tablespoons lime juice, divided
2 tablespoons olive oil
2 pounds round steak ( 1/4 to 1/3-inch thick)
1/2 cup mayonnaise
1 tablespoon pureed canned chipotle en adobo, with sauce
2 avocados, halved and pitted
6 bolillo rolls, focaccia rolls or other high-quality buns

Steps:

  • 1. Rinse the sliced red onion in a strainer under cold running water. Pat it dry, place it in a bowl and cover it with the red wine vinegar. Set aside for at least 30 minutes, up to 2 hours. 2. Using a mortar and pestle, pound the garlic with the salt to make a paste. Add 1 tablespoon of lime juice and incorporate it into the garlic. Slowly add the olive oil, stirring with the pestle to incorporate it too. If you don't have a mortar and pestle, this can be done in a food processor. 3. Spoon the garlic mixture over the steak, spreading it with the back of a spoon. Season well with salt. Turn the meat over and do the same with the other side. 4. In another small bowl, use a spoon to beat together the mayonnaise, pureed chipotle and 1 tablespoon of the lime juice. 5. Cut the pitted avocados into thin slices and carefully peel away the skin. 6. Grill the beef over high heat. If you're using round steak, cook about 3 minutes on the first side, then turn and cook 1 or 2 minutes more. The meat should be medium rare in the center. If you're using a thicker cut, leave the meat rarer in the center, cooking 6 or 7 minutes per side. Set the meat aside while you build the sandwiches. 7. Cut the rolls in half and spread with the chipotle mayonnaise, about 1 tablespoon for each half. Arrange the avocado slices on the top half of the roll, then add a couple of onion rings. 8. If you're using round steak, cut the meat into pieces roughly the size of the bread and arrange on top of the onion rings. If you're using a thicker cut, slice it thinly across the grain and then arrange it on the sandwich. Add the bottom half of the roll and press gently to compact everything together. Turn the sandwich right-side-up to serve.

I'm not a huge fan of chipotle, but I thought I'd give this recipe a try. I was pleasantly surprised! The chipotle mayonnaise wasn't too spicy, and it really added a nice flavor to the steak. I'll definitely be making this again.

This recipe is a great way to use up leftover steak. I made it with some flank steak that I had grilled the night before, and it was delicious. The chipotle mayonnaise is a great way to add some extra flavor to the steak.
