Satisfying Mexican tortas packed with juicy steak, creamy avocado, and zesty beans on crispy rolls.
Ingredients:
  • 4 (3 ounce) thin-cut beef round steaks
  • 4 Mexican-style sandwich rolls (bolillos)
  • 0.25 cup sour cream, divided
  • 1 (15 ounce) can pinto beans - drained, rinsed, and mashed - divided
  • 2 avocados - peeled, pitted and sliced
  • 2 large tomatoes, sliced
  • 2 pickled jalapeno peppers, sliced into quarters lengthwise
  • 2 cups shredded romaine lettuce, divided
  • 1 cup chopped fresh cilantro, divided
  • 1 cup crumbled queso fresco (Mexican fresh cheese), divided

Instructions:
  • Prepare a sizzling skillet over medium heat. Cook steaks to perfection, flipping once, for approximately 5 minutes on each side.
  • Slice the rolls lengthwise and generously spread 1 tablespoon of sour cream on one side of each half. Layer about 1/3 cup of mashed pinto beans on each sandwich and top with a cooked round steak on top.
  • Assemble the sandwich with layers of creamy avocado slices, juicy tomato slices, tangy pickled jalapeños, a generous handful of shredded lettuce, flavorful cilantro, and savory crumbled queso fresco cheese.
  • Drizzle each sandwich with fresh lime juice, seal, and enjoy.
