Stuffed steak. Need I say more...? Yes? Ok. Mexican Stuffed Skirt Steak. Are you drooling now?

I've mentioned before that Cody and I love Mexican flavors. We will Mexican-ify everything if we can.  When I realized that we have, count them, zero beef recipes on the blog, I had a mini heart attack (a non beef induced heart attack, obviously). It's slightly confusing to me, because I love beef. I brought this crazy fact to Cody's attention, so we came up with this powerhouse of flavor.

We've also come to the conclusion that Chirpy's been a bit one dimensional with flavors so far - but what's good is good, right? A super flavorful steak. Tomato, onion and bell peppers with a limey kick. Cheeese. I dare you to find fault in that.

A quick sear on the outside on a hot pan gives some glorious color. It is then popped in the oven at 350º for 45 minutes.

After 45 minutes, you are left with a perfect medium steak. It's almost too perfect to eat. No, really. It's so perfect, you'll want to keep it all for yourself. Sorry family. I spend too many minutes admiring this wonderful piece of art/steak.

We served our Stuffed Mexican Steak with a generous scoop of The Best Fresh Guacamole (plus more on the side, obviously) and our amazingly awesome Loaded Sweet Corn Salad. So should you! Mm...*drool*

• Sear each side of the steak on a hot pan to seal the seam and get a crisp, colored outside.

1. I like to hammer the steak a little bit to even out the thickness to approximate ½”/1cm thick.

2. If you’ve having trouble keeping the steak roll...rolled
