Tostadas with grilled steak topcook.tomathouse.com
Ingredients:
- 1/4 cup brewed coffee at room temperature
- 2 tbsp. chili powder
- 2 tbsp olive oil + extra for greasing
- 700 g skirt steak, cut into 4 equal parts
- 1 red onion, cut into 1 cm thick circles.
- 8 store-bought corn tostadas
- 0.5 cup fresh cilantro leaves
- Thinly sliced avocado, Mexican sour cream, crumbled cotija cheese, pickled jalapeños, shredded lettuce and/or lime wedges, for serving
Preparation:
- Preheat an outdoor grill to high heat.
- In a shallow baking dish, combine coffee, chili powder, olive oil, 1 teaspoon salt, and a pinch of freshly ground black pepper. Add the skirt steak, turn to coat with the marinade, and let marinate at room temperature for about 20 minutes.
- While the steak marinates, brush the onion slices lightly with olive oil and grill, turning occasionally, until tender and lightly charred, about 15 minutes; set aside. Pat the steaks dry and grill, turning once, until medium-rare inside with deep grill marks, 3-4 minutes per side. Transfer the steaks to a cutting board and let them rest for 5 minutes, then slice thinly across the grain.
- Top each tostada with a mound of meat, some fried onions, and cilantro leaves. Serve with sliced avocado, sour cream, crumbled cotija cheese, pickled jalapeños, lettuce, and/or lime wedges.
