Our all new, pre-cut & marinaded, ready-to-cook Carne Asada Steak Strips will help get dinner on the table quick! And, once you've tried the olive oil/hot sauce or sriracha coating on the tortillas, you will use it for any tortilla! So good!
Ingredients
- 1 - 1 pound pkg. Wild Idea Carne Asada Steak Strips
- 2 to 4 tablespoons olive oil
- 5 - corn tortillas
1 - tablespoon hot sauce or sriracha
- 5 - ounces shredded cheese
- accompaniments of choice
Directions
- Place the Carne Asada strips in a bowl, cover and allow them to rest at room temperature for one to two hours.
- Drain the marinade away form the steak strips and pat the strips with a paper towel.
- In a large heavy skillet, over medium high to high heat, heat one to two tablespoons of olive oil. Add the steak strips to the hot pan and sauté for three to four minutes. If using a smaller pan, work in two batches, so steak strips brown nicely. Add more olive oil if needed.
- Remove from the heat, loosely cover until ready to use.
Simultaneously, heat a flat griddle over medium high heat and mix the remaining two tablespoons olive oil with one tablespoon of hot sauce or sriracha. Coat both sides of each tortilla with the olive oil/sriracha and place on the heated griddle. Cook the tortillas until they start to puff up, then flip. Sprinkle the toasted side of the tortilla with the cheese, while the other side tis browning. When she’s is melted and tortilla is slightly crispy remove from the heat.
- Top the tostadas with the Carne Asada and your favorite accompaniments.
