Preparation

Step 1

Preheat a grill or grill pan to medium-high heat. Season the Steak generously with the Salt, Chili Powder, and Cumin. Place on the grill and cook for 3-4 minutes per side for medium rare. Rest 10 minutes before carving.
In a saucepot, combine the Salsa and Enchilada Sauce, and bring to a boil. Reduce to a simmer and cook for 10 minutes, until the sauce comes together.
n a large sauté pan, add a drizzle of Olive Oil and the Refried Beans. Add the Chipotles in Adobo, Beer, and Tequila. Bring to a boil, and then simmer for 10 minutes, until the Beans thicken. Check seasoning and adjust as needed.
In a blender, combine the Tomatillos, Cilantro, a pinch of Salt, and puree. Add water to loosen it as you blend, adding just enough to get a salsa consistency.
Toast the Corn Tortillas in a dry pan for 30 seconds per side. Slice the Steak into thin slices against the grain. Smear some of the Beans on the Tortilla, top with Salsa Rojo, sprinkle a few slices Fresno Chiles over the Steak, sprinkle with some Cotija, and drizzle with Salsa Verde. Repeat with the remaining ingredients, wrap the tacos in a leaf of Iceberg and enjoy.|
