Steak in Salsa Verde
Steak in Salsa Verde
Steak in salsa verde is very popular and made all over Mexico. It varies from region to region. It can be made with just the meat and salsa verde, or you can add some type of vegetable to it like I have with the potato. You can also substitute squash, green zucchini, green beans, just to name a few.When selecting the beef for this dish, you want to use something that has some fat to it. Ribeye works best. NY strip or top sirloin are leaner, but will work well too. You can either have it thin sliced like I have or cut it up into bite sized chunks. This is a great dish with a side of beans, or you can even use this as a filling for tacos.
