How to cook it
-
Slice the steak thin against the grain if it is not already cut thin.
-
Sear the steak hard in the oil over high heat, in batches so it browns rather than steams, then set aside.
-
In the same pan, saute the onion and serrano chile for 2 minutes.
-
Add the tomato and garlic and cook 5 minutes until the tomato breaks down into a light sauce.
-
Return the steak to the pan, season with the salt, and simmer 3 minutes to finish.
