This is a nice stew; make it as spicy as you like by adding or reducing the amounts of chili peppers. I happen to be fond of Ancho Chili Peppers. Please feel free to substitute your own favorites! Serve with your choice of tortillas

This is my sandwich entry for this week's Family/Friends Sammie. My family has always enjoyed Chinese and Mexican cuisine, so I decided to fuse the two together for this sandwich. A little bit Beef & Green Bean Stir-Fry (my favorite) with a little bit of Beef Fajitas (my husband's favorite). Hence, East Meets South of the Border...

SOUTH OF THE BORDER STEAK



South of the Border Steak image

I got this recipe from my very old Betty Crocker recipe file box. It was in the 'Outdoor Entertaining' section. I'm posting it exactly as written,per a request, but I don't know exactly what they mean by '1 envelope of meat marinade' which is critical to this recipe. There are numerous marinade recipes on this site,so if it were me, I'd look for one that would compliment / enhance the Mexican flavor, unless you can easily find the meat marinade envelope called for. Cook time does not include marinating time for the steak.
