Time 35m

Number Of Ingredients 10

1 Pound Rib Eye steak* (2 steaks, each 1/3 or ½ - in. thick)
1 Large garlic clove or 2 small garlic cloves**
6 peppercorns
2 tablespoons of water
Salt to taste
2 tablespoons of vegetable oil
½ large medium white onion (sliced)
2 jalapeño peppers or 4 Serrano peppers (sliced)
4 Large Plum tomatoes (cut into slices)
1/3 cup beer (pale lager)

Steps:

  • Grind the garlic and peppercorns in your molcajete until you have a fine paste. Add the 2 tablespoons of water and stir. Rub this paste all over the steaks and season with salt.
  • Heat the oil in a large skillet (make sure the skillet is big enough for the two steaks). Once it is hot, add the steaks and cook for about 3 minutes per side.
  • Add the onion and peppers to the skillet and cook for 3 more minutes, until the sliced onion starts looking transparent. Stir to make sure everything is cooking evenly.
  • Now, place all the tomato slices on top of the meat, as shown in the picture. Cover the skillet and let it cook for about 5 minutes. After this time, the tomatoes will start releasing their juices. Pour in the beer, season with salt, and keep cooking for 5 more minutes, stirring from time to time. Serve with fried beans, rice, and warm corn tortillas.

Categories     Main Dish

Time 15m

Number Of Ingredients 14

2 pounds flank steak
1 tablespoon ground cumin
1 tablespoon brown sugar
2 teaspoons ancho chili powder
1-1/2 teaspoons salt
1 teaspoon ground oregano
1 teaspoon ground black pepper
2 large onions, roughly chopped
3 garlic cloves, chopped
2 jalapeno peppers, seeds removed and diced
1 to 2 diced, canned chipotle peppers (not the whole can)
1 tablespoon Adobo sauce from the canned chipotle
1 cup white wine or chicken broth
4 to 5 large tomatoes, cut into large chunks (about 1 pound) or sub with canned tomatoes

Steps:

  • Slice the flank steak into thin strips across the grain.
  • Combine the cumin, sugar, salt, oregano, chili powder, and pepper in a small bowl.
  • Toss the steak strips with the spices until they get completely coated. Let the steak sit for at least 20 minutes or place in the fridge overnight.
  • Heat some oil in a large skillet over medium high heat until it gets smoking hot. When the oil is hot, work in batches to cook the steak strips. Add the steak strips in a single layer and let them sear for 1 to 2 minutes without moving them. When they get a caramelized brown color, give them a stir then transfer to a plate. Repeat with the rest of the steak strips then transfer them to a plate. You don't need to cook the steak all the way, just get it browned. The steak strips will cook more later in the recipe.
  • Don't clean the skillet out. The pieces left behind from cooking the steak will loosen up when you cook the vegetables.
  • Add the onions to the hot skillet and cook, stirring frequently until softened. Add garlic, jalapeño peppers, chipotle, and adobo sauce. Cook for 1 to 2 minutes stirring, until the peppers and garlic are fragrant.
  • Pour in the wine or broth to deglaze the pan. Scrape up any cooked-on bits from the bottom of the skillet.
  • Return the steak strips to the skillet and add the tomatoes. Give everything a stir and reduce the heat to medium. Cover with a lid and simmer for 15 to 25 minutes until the steak gets tender and the tomatoes break down into a juicy sauce.
  • Remove the lid and simmer for 5 minutes to reduce the sauce.
  • Serve with rice or roasted potatoes.

STEAK RANCHEROS

Great rancheros sauce in which beef cutlets are sauteed. Serve over rice as these are very saucy and the sauce is amazing. Alternatively can serve sauce over grilled steak.

Tips:

  • Tenderize the steak properly before cooking. You can use a meat mallet or a fork to poke holes in the steak.
  • Use a heavy-bottomed pot or skillet to cook the steak. This will help to evenly distribute the heat and prevent the steak from sticking.
  • Sear the steak over high heat for a few minutes per side. This will create a nice crust and help to lock in the juices.
  • Reduce the heat to medium and cook the steak for an additional 5-7 minutes per side, or until it reaches your desired doneness.
  • Let the steak rest for a few minutes before slicing and serving. This will help to keep the juices in the steak.
  • Serve the steak with your favorite sides, such as mashed potatoes, roasted vegetables, or a salad.

Conclusion:

Steak ranchero is a delicious and easy-to-make dish that is perfect for any occasion. The steak is tender and flavorful, and the sauce is rich and tangy. This dish is sure to be a hit with your family and friends.
