Alambre Tortas Recipe

Cook the Meat

In a large skillet, heat the olive oil over medium heat. Add the sliced beef and cook until browned, about 5-7 minutes. Season with salt and black pepper. Remove the beef and set aside.

Cook the Bacon

In the same skillet, add the chopped bacon. Cook until crispy, about 5 minutes. Remove excess grease if necessary, but leave some for flavor.

Sauté the Vegetables

Add the onion, bell peppers, and jalapeño (if using) to the skillet. Sauté until they are soft and fragrant, about 5 minutes.

Combine Ingredients

Return the cooked beef to the skillet with the vegetables. Mix well and cook for an additional 2-3 minutes to combine flavors.

Add Cheese

Sprinkle the shredded cheese over the mixture in the skillet. Cover and let it melt for about 2 minutes.

Assemble the Tortas

Place a portion of the filling onto each flour tortilla. Fold the sides and roll it up to enclose the filling.

Serve

Serve warm, optionally with salsa or guacamole on the side.
