TORTILLA WITH FLANK STEAK WITH CHIPOTLE HONEY SAUCE

Flank Steak

2 Chipotle Peppers in Adobo

2 garlic cloves

3 T. Cilantro

1 T. Coconut Oil

1 1/2 T. Honey

3 T. Lime juice

2 T. Rice Vinegar

2 T. Dijon Mustard

1 t. cumin

1 pound flank steak

salt and fresh ground pepper to taste

3 cups Masa Harina

1/3 chipotle pepper

1 medium garlic clove

2 T. cilantro

For the sauce, mince chipotle, garlic and cilantro in a food processor. Add honey, oil, vinegar, mustard, lime juice, cumin, including 1 tsp salt and 1/2 tsp pepper; pulse to combine. Set aside.

For the steak, mix chipotle, garlic, cilantro, and lime juice in a large nonreactive baking pan to make a marinade. Place flank steak in the marinade; turn to coat. Cover with plastic wrap and refrigerate overnight.

Heat the grill. Sprinkle flank steak with 1/2 tsp pepper. Grill, turning once, until browned; about 8 minutes for medium rare. Transfer steak to a carving board and let stand for 5 minutes.

Holding the knife on a slight angle, slice the flank steak across the grain into 1/4-inch-thick slices. Transfer a portion of the steak slices to each warm dinner plate. Drizzle a portion of the Chipotle-Honey Sauce over the grilled flank steak slices and serve immediately. Serve the slices of flank steak on a fresh off the stove tortilla with slices of avocado and red onion.

To make fresh Corn Tortillas;

equal parts water and Masa Harina less a bout 2 T. water.  I figure a cup about 1 serving.

1)  Mix masa flour with hot water. Let stand about 10 minutes.Heat iron skillet to medium high. Us 2 pieces of wax paper or parchment paper that you have coated lightly with coconut oil or butter, place a slightly larger than golf ball size ball of dough between wax papers. using a pan that has a flat bottom, gently press tortilla flat. Peel off into your hand and place in skillet.

2)  cook until edges begin to turn up, flip over and cook on other side. the first side should take about 5 minutes, the other side; about 4 minutes. Place on oven racks in COLD oven,oven door ajar. When ready to reheat, turn oven on 350 degrees and warm for a short length of time.  If you leave them in too long, they’ll get very hard.
