Instructions

Prepare sauce ingredients
- Slice tomatoes into wedges, then cut the wedges in half. Slice the white onion and jalapeño ¼” thick. Juice the limes. Remove 3-4 chipotle peppers in Adobo sauce and mince. Drain the roasted red bell peppers from the can and roughly chop. Set aside 1 tablespoon of the adobo sauce.
- Crush garlic through a garlic press.
- Once the pan is hot, add olive oil and swirl to coat. Add the tomatoes, onions, jalapeños, chipotle peppers, and roasted red peppers.
- Sauté for 7 minutes
- Add garlic, pepper, and cumin.
- Stir.
- Next, add the adobo sauce and lime juice to the pan.
- Stir to incorporate, then push everything towards the edges of the pan to create an empty space in the center. Pour the tequila in the center and allow alcohol to burn off, about 2 minutes.
- Lower the heat to a simmer and stir the sauce. Cover and cook for 10 minutes.
- Heat a skillet or frying pan over high heat. Once hot, add the steak to the pan and sear for 3 minutes per side.
