Sándwich De Bistec Al Estilo Cubano Recipes

CUBAN SANDWICH (CUBANO)

Steps:

• Heat your skillet or griddle: I like to use two cast iron skillets nested on top of one another, pressing the sandwich in between. To use this method, place both skillets (one on top of the other) over medium heat and let them heat through. If using a panini press set it to medium heat. The skillet or griddle shouldn't be screaming hot, but it should radiate enough heat to toast the bread slowly. If you aren't using the double pan method or a panini press, just use anything you have to weigh the sandwich down - a foil wrapped brick, your spatula, whatever you have will do.
• Serve: Remove your sandwich from the skillet or griddle. Slice your sandwich according to the number of guests you need to serve and serve the sandwich with a handful of chips and a pickle or two. LEFTOVERS! Leftovers should be wrapped in foil and stored in the refrigerator. They may be reheated by cooking the same as above.

SáNDWICH DE BISTEC AL ESTILO CUBANO

Steps:

• Usa un mazo para adelgazar la carne hasta que tenga 1/8 pulgada de grosor; colócala en un plato poco profundo. Mezcla bien 2 cdas. del aderezo, el jugo de limón y el ajo. Vierte esta mezcla sobre los bistecs. Víralos para recubrirlos de manera pareja por ambos lados. Pon a marinar la carne en el refrigerador durante 1 hora.
• Saca la carne de la marinada; deshazte del líquido. Cocina, en una sartén grande, 2 de los bistecs en 1 cucharada del aderezo restante a fuego medio-alto durante 2-1/2 min. por lado o hasta que se cocinen por completo. Saca la carne de la sartén; colócala sobre la mitad inferior de dos de los panecillos. Tápalos a fin de mantenerlos calientes. Haz lo mismo con el aderezo, bistecs y los panecillos restantes.
• Pon la cebolla en la sartén; cocínala, revolviéndola de vez en cuando, por 5 min. o hasta que se dore un poco y esté tierna. Incorpora el perejil y pon esta mezcla sobre los bistecs; completa los sándwiches con la parte superior de los panecillos. Pincela con mantequilla ambos lados de cada panecillo.
• Calienta dos sartenes grandes a fuego medio-alto. Coloca los sándwiches en una de las sartenes. (En caso de que no quepan los cuatro sándwiches en la sartén, cocina los sándwiches por tandas.) Coloca sobre los sándwiches la otra sartén que precalentaste; presiona con cuidado la sartén a fin de aplastar un poco los sándwiches. Cocínalos de 4 a 5 min. por lado o hasta que ambas caras de los panecillos queden crujientes y se doren bien.

Steps:

• In a large resealable bag, combine the steak, olive oil, garlic, oregano, sazon seasoning, onions, vinegar, beef stock, and salt. Seal and shake to mix. Refrigerate for at least 4 hours, or up to a couple of days.
• When you are ready to cook, dump the entire contents of the bag into a large deep skillet. Bring to a boil, reduce heat to low, cover and simmer until the beef is fork tender, about 40 minutes.

CUBAN STEAK (BISTEC ENCEBOLLADO)

Steps:

• Using a meat mallet, place the steaks between two pieces of wax paper and pound out to a thickness of 1/4 inch.
• Heat a small amount of oil in a frying pan at low heat. Sauté onions briefly! They should still be slighty crisp. Remove onions.
• Sprinkle each steak with Adobo seasoning and black pepper and rub into steaks. Sauté the garlic for one minute in a small amount of olive oil, . Add steaks and sauté to desired doneness in olive oil(or you could grill your steaks). Remove steaks. Deglaze the pan by adding the lime juice and continuing to heat, stirring constantly. Cook long enough to reduce (thicken) somewhat.
• Cover each steak with the fried onions. Pour sauce over steaks and sprinkle with chopped cilantro.

CUBAN STEAK SANDWICH

• Pound steaks to 1/8-inch thickness; place in shallow dish. Mix 2 Tbsp. dressing, lemon juice and garlic until blended; pour over steaks. Turn to evenly coat both sides of steaks. Refrigerate 1 hour to marinate.
• Remove steaks from marinade; discard marinade. Heat 1 Tbsp. of the remaining dressing in large skillet on medium-high heat. Add 2 steaks; cook 2-1/2 min. on each side or until done. Remove steaks from skillet; place on bottom halves of 2 rolls. Cover to keep warm. Repeat with remaining dressing, steaks and rolls.
• Add onions to skillet; cook on medium heat 5 min. or until tender and lightly browned, stirring occasionally. Stir in parsley; spoon over steaks. Cover with top halves of rolls; brush both sides of sandwiches with butter.
• Heat 2 large skillets on medium-high heat. Place sandwiches in 1 skillet. (If all 4 sandwiches do not fit in the skillet, cook sandwiches in batches.) Place second heated skillet on top of sandwiches; gently press down on top skillet to flatten sandwiches slightly. Cook 4 to 5 min. on each side or until both sides of sandwiches are crisp and golden brown.
