Cheese Poblano Steak Tacos-Chispas Tacos

Chispas tacos are a homemade favorite from the state of Michoacán. Tender steak is cooked with poblano peppers and white onion, then topped with melted V&V Supremo® Shredded Chihuahua® Brand Cheese or V&V Supremo® Shredded Mexican 3 Cheese Blend. Spoon it into warm corn tortillas and serve with salsa and lime.

Directions

  1. 1

    Preheat a medium pan over medium-low heat for 1 minute. Add the olive oil. After another minute, add the beef and cook for 20 minutes, or until the liquid evaporates, stirring occasionally. Add the garlic and cook for 1 minute, stirring constantly to avoid burning.

  2. 2

    Add the poblano peppers and cook for 5 minutes, stirring occasionally. Add the onion and salt and cook for 5 more minutes, stirring occasionally, until the poblano peppers are soft.

  3. 3

    Distribute the V&V Supremo® Shredded Chihuahua® Brand Cheese or V&V Supremo® Shredded Mexican 3 Cheese Blend evenly over the meat. Do not stir. After 1 minute, cover the pan and turn the heat off. Let it rest for 5 minutes, until the cheese is fully melted.

  4. 4

    Preheat a large skillet over medium heat for 1 minute. Place the tortillas in a single layer on the skillet for about 1 minute. Flip and heat the other side for 1 more minute, or until the tortillas are just warm and pliable, not hard. Repeat with all the tortillas.

  5. 5

    Spoon a generous portion of the meat mixture onto each tortilla and serve with salsa and lime.
