Mofongo De Churrasco Recipe

Preparation Instructions

1. 1

   Cook the Skirt Steak

   Season the skirt steak with salt and black pepper. Heat a grill or skillet over medium-high heat and cook the steak for about 4-5 minutes on each side for medium-rare. Remove from heat and let it rest before slicing.

2. 2

   Prepare the Plantains

   Peel and cut the green plantains into thick slices. In a large pot, bring water to a boil and add the plantain slices. Cook for about 15-20 minutes until tender. Drain the plantains.

3. 3

   Mash the Plantains

   In a mortar and pestle or using a large bowl and fork, mash the cooked plantains with garlic cloves, pork cracklings, and olive oil. Gradually add chicken broth until you reach a creamy consistency. Season with salt to taste.

4. 4

   Serve

   Scoop the mofongo onto a plate, top with sliced skirt steak, and serve immediately. Optionally, drizzle with additional olive oil or serve with a side of broth.
