Method

Preparing the Steak

  1. 1

    Marinate the Steak

    In a bowl, combine olive oil, lime juice, cumin, chili powder, garlic powder, salt, and black pepper. Add the skirt steak and coat it well with the marinade. Cover and refrigerate for at least 1 hour or overnight for better flavor.

  2. 2

    Prepare the Grill

    Soak the mesquite wood chips in water for at least 30 minutes. Preheat the grill to medium-high heat and add the soaked wood chips to the grill for smoking.

  3. 3

    Grill the Steak

    Remove the steak from the marinade and let any excess marinade drip off. Place the steak on the grill over the mesquite chips. Grill for about 4-5 minutes on each side for medium-rare, or until desired doneness. Remove from grill and let rest for 5 minutes before slicing.

Preparing the Queso Enchilada

  1. 4

    Assemble the Enchiladas

    Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C). In a baking dish, spread a thin layer of enchilada sauce on the bottom. Take a corn tortilla, fill it with a mix of cheddar cheese, Monterey Jack cheese, diced green chilies, and a dollop of sour cream. Roll the tortilla and place it seam-side down in the baking dish.

  2. 5

    Add Sauce and Cheese

    Once all tortillas are in the baking dish, pour the remaining enchilada sauce over the top and sprinkle the rest of the cheeses on top.

  3. 6

    Bake the Enchiladas

    Cover the dish with foil and bake for 20 minutes. Remove the foil and bake for an additional 10 minutes, or until the cheese is bubbly and golden.

Serving

  1. 7

    Plate the Dish

    Slice the grilled skirt steak against the grain into strips. Serve alongside the queso enchiladas, garnished with fresh cilantro, lime wedges, and additional sour cream if desired.
