Cemitas Puebla Steak Tacos With Salsa Verde Recipes

Steps:

• Heat the vegetable oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Season the beef with the cumin, 1 teaspoon salt and 1/4 teaspoon pepper. Add to the skillet and cook until golden brown, about 3 minutes per side.
• Transfer the meat to a 6-quart slow cooker, then add the salsa, onion and garlic. Cover and cook on high, 6 hours.
• Remove the meat to a cutting board and shred with 2 forks, discarding the excess fat. Return the meat to the slow cooker and stir in the cilantro.
• Serve the meat in tortillas and top as desired. Serve with lime wedges.

Steps:

• For the pork chops: Preheat the oven to 425 degrees F.
• Combine the paprika, salt, sugar and pepper in a small bowl. Rub all over the surface of the chops and let the chops rest on a rack while you make the salsa verde.
• For the salsa verde: Combine the parsley, capers, lemon juice, zest, mustard, salt, cayenne, scallions and garlic in a blender. Pulse to make a coarse paste. With the blender running on high, add the olive oil in a slow, steady stream to make a thick, smooth sauce. With the blender running on low, add up to 2 tablespoons water to thin the sauce so it has a drizzle consistency.
• For the pork chops: Heat a skillet over medium-high heat, then coat with some olive oil. Add the chops to the skillet and sear until the underside is well browned, about 4 minutes. If the sides of the chops have a thick layer of fat, turn them briefly on their sides to sear the fat, about 30 seconds. Flip the chops raw-side down and transfer the skillet to the oven. Roast until the chops are just cooked through and reach 140 to 145 degrees F in the center as measured on an instant-read thermometer, about 10 minutes. Remove from the oven and let rest for 5 minutes. Serve drizzled with the salsa verde.

Steps:

• Put the onion, jalapeno, and garlic in a food processor and finely chop. Add the tomatillos, avocado, and salt and pulse until chopped but still chunky. Transfer to a bowl and stir in the cilantro.
• Heat a stovetop or outdoor grill to medium-high. Mix the olive oil, chipotle or chili powder, and salt in a large bowl. Add the shrimp and toss to coat. Grill the shrimp until translucent, about 1 1/2 to 2 minutes on each side.
• Grill tortillas, until slightly charred and pliable, about 20 seconds per side. (Alternatively, wrap in a damp paper towel and heat in a microwave.) Spoon sauce on the tortilla, then top with about 2 or 3 shrimp and a sprig of cilantro. Serve 2 tacos per person, with a lime wedge on the side.

Steps:

• Blend ingredients well and serve over your favorite poblano meals.

Steps:

• In a blender combine the garlic, shallot, poblano, parsley, cilantro, oil, and lemon juice. Blend until smooth. Season with the salt and pepper.
• Serve over grilled vegetables, rice or thin out with olive oil and serve as a salad dressing.

Steps:

• Make the salsa verde: Pulse the parsley, scallions, capers, lemon zest and juice, anchovies, garlic, mustard and olive oil in a food processor until slightly chunky. Pour into a bowl and season with salt.
• Preheat a grill to high or place a grill pan over high heat. Pierce the steak all over with a fork and season with salt and pepper. Oil the grill or pan; grill the steak, 4 to 5 minutes per side for medium-rare, turning once. Transfer to a cutting board and let rest for 5 minutes.
• Slice the tomatoes and season with salt and pepper. Thinly slice the steak against the grain. Serve with the tomatoes and salsa verde.

Steps:

• 1. For the salsa verde: Heat a griddle, grill, or skillet over high heat and add the tomatillos, garlic, and jalapenos all at once. Eyeball them, but do about a minute or two on each side, turning with tongs, until everything is close to getting black but not black.
• 2. Put the charred vegetables in the blender with the avocado, water, and salt and blend until smooth. Add the cilantro and blend again.
• 3. For the steak: Combine the seasonings in a small bowl. Squeeze the limes over the meat evenly, using all their juices. Then rub the lime halves over the meat to get the pulp over it. Sprinkle the seasoning mix over both sides.
• 4. Heat a grill to medium-high. Grill the steak to your liking; we like it medium-well. Remove, let rest 5 minutes, and then slice it across the grain in angled strips. Using 2 tortillas per taco, pile in some meat, onion, and cilantro and top with salsa verde.

Steps:

• Combine all chiles and tomatillos in food processor and pulse to a chunky puree. Add salt and water. Remove to a bowl and stir in onion and cilantro. Add more water if necessary (tomatillos contain a lot of pectin and salsa can gel). Check seasoning.

Steps:

• For the milanesa: Put the meat on a large plate, sprinkle all over with meat tenderizer and refrigerate for 30 minutes.
• Whisk the eggs in a medium bowl, then whisk in the milk. In another bowl, mix both breadcrumbs and the Italian seasoning. Dip the meat in the egg mixture and soak it for 15 seconds, then remove and dredge in the breadcrumb mixture to coat on both sides. Transfer to a plate and refrigerate for at least 10 minutes.
• Melt the lard in a large skillet over medium-high heat until hot. Add the breaded meat and cook until golden brown, flipping halfway through, about 3 minutes. Transfer the milanesa to a paper towel-lined plate to drain.
• Place the milanesa on the bun bottoms. Lay the avocado over each milanesa, then season with salt and drizzle with olive oil. Top with yellow onions and pickled jalapeños, then add the queso blanco or queso fresco, followed by the queso Oaxaca. Sprinkle with herbs, if using, then add the bun top.
