Note

For a milder flavor, use mild picante sauce; for extra heat, choose a hot variety.

You can substitute the strip loin with sirloin or flank steak, adjusting cooking time as needed for thickness.

Let the steaks rest for 5 minutes before slicing or assembling to retain juices.

Add avocado slices or cilantro to the sandwich for extra freshness and texture.

If using a skillet, add a small amount of oil to prevent sticking.
