    Chili Cheese Steak with Avocado


    Source of Recipe


    Safeway

    Recipe Introduction


    Liven up your cheese steak with a little heat. The avocado will cool down your taste buds enough for you to savor the spiciness.



    List of Ingredients




    1 pound skirt steak, fat trimmed
    1 teaspoon olive oil
    1/4 cup tequila
    1 tablespoon red wine vinegar
    1 can (7 oz.) whole green chilies, drained
    1/4 pound Lucerne Monterey Jack Cheese, thinly sliced
    1 firm-ripe avocado (10 to 12 oz.)
    Salt and pepper

    Recipe



    1. Rinse steak and pat dry. Cut into 4 equal pieces.

    2. Set an 11- to 12-inch frying pan with ovenproof handle over high heat; when pan is hot, add oil and tilt to coat pan bottom. Add steak and cook, turning pieces once, until browned but still rare in center (cut to test), 6 to 7 minutes total.

    3. Remove steaks from pan, leaving any juices in pan, and transfer to a plate. Remove pan from heat and add tequila and vinegar; be careful—mixture will boil vigorously. (If it doesn’t, return pan to heat until boiling.)

    4. Off the heat, return steaks to pan. Lay chilies equally on steaks; top with cheese slices. Broil steaks in pan 4 inches from heat just until cheese is melted, 1 to 2 minutes. While steaks broil, pit, peel, and thickly slice avocado.

    5. Transfer steaks to plates. Spoon pan juices around meat. Arrange avocado equally on portions. Add salt and pepper to taste.
