Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 4 pieces minute steaks
- 1 large bell peppers (red, yellow, or green), thinly sliced
- 1 medium onion, thinly sliced
- 1 cup black beans, rinsed and drained
- 1 cup shredded Mexican cheese blend
- 1 can (10 oz) diced tomatoes with green chilies
- 1 teaspoon garlic powder
- 1 teaspoon ground cumin
- 1 teaspoon chili powder
- 0.5 teaspoon salt
- 0.5 teaspoon black pepper
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 2 tablespoons fresh cilantro, chopped (optional)
- 1 whole lime, cut into wedges (for serving)
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).
Lay the minute steaks flat on a clean surface and lightly season both sides with salt, pepper, garlic powder, ground cumin, and chili powder.
Heat 1 tablespoon of olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Add the sliced bell peppers and onions, cooking for about 5-7 minutes until they soften. Remove from heat and set aside.
In a medium bowl, mix the cooked bell peppers and onions with black beans, shredded Mexican cheese blend, and half the can of diced tomatoes with green chilies. Stir until well combined.
Spread an even layer of the vegetable and cheese mixture onto each minute steak, leaving a small border around the edges.
Carefully roll each steak tightly, starting from a short end. Secure each roll with toothpicks to keep them from unraveling during cooking.
Heat the remaining 1 tablespoon of olive oil in the same skillet over medium-high heat. Sear the steak rollups for 1-2 minutes on each side, until browned.
Transfer the seared rollups to a baking dish. Pour the remaining half of the diced tomatoes with green chilies over the rollups.
Cover the baking dish with aluminum foil and bake in the preheated oven for 12-15 minutes, or until the steaks are cooked to your desired degree of doneness.
Remove from the oven and let the rollups rest for 5 minutes. Remove toothpicks before serving.
Garnish with fresh cilantro if desired, and serve with lime wedges on the side for an extra burst of flavor.
