You will need the following ingredients:

3 lbs. of thin sliced chuck steak (diesmillo)

1/2 cup of lemon

1/4 of a small onion

2 cloves of garlic

3 Poblano Chiles

3 Tablespoons of Olive Oil

1 1/2 Tablespoon of Salt

1 Teaspoon of Lawry's Seasoning Salt

Tortillas (Corn or Prickly Pear Cactus/Nopales)

You will also need the following supplies:

1/2 cup measuring cup

Knife

Blender

Cutting Board

Strainer

Plastic Bag

Tablespoon

Always remember to wash all your fruits/vegetables.

To prepare the marinade, blend 1/2 cup of lemon juice, 1 1/2 tablespoon of salt, and 2 cloves of garlic.

Pour the blended lemon mixture in a bag with the meat. Flip the bag once (while marinating) to ensure that all the meat gets the marinade flavor. Keep the marinated meat in the refrigerator for at least 30 minutes before you begin to cook it.

Pour 3 tablespoons of olive oil onto a pan. Let the oil heat up.

Place the marinated meat into the pan. Sprinkle 1-2 teaspoons of Lawry's seasoning salt onto the meat. Cover the pan with a lid and cook for 30 minutes in medium heat.

Remove the stem from each of the 3 Poblano peppers and thinly slice each one as seen in the pictures

After 30 minutes of cooking the meat, add the Poblano pepper slices to the meat.

Chop the onion into thin ring slices. After 15-20 minutes of placing the Poblano peppers in the meat, add the sliced onion and continue to cook until all the the meat is nearly dry.

You will know that the meat is ready when the onion is cooked and the meat is nearly dry. Let the meat cool off for 2-3 minutes, then get ready to serve.

Heat some tortillas in the microwave or griddle for about a minute. Chose from prickly pear tortillas or corn tortillas.
