Method

Directions

  1. 1

    Prepare the Steak

    In a bowl, mix olive oil, minced garlic, cumin, chili powder, salt, and black pepper. Add flank steak and marinate for at least 30 minutes.

  2. 2

    Cook the Steak

    Grill or pan-sear the marinated flank steak over medium-high heat for about 5-7 minutes on each side or until desired doneness. Let it rest for a few minutes before slicing it thinly.

    Prepare Tortillas

    In a skillet, lightly toast the corn tortillas until they are crispy but not burnt.

    Assemble Tostadas

    Spread a layer of refried beans on each tortilla. Top with sliced steak, shredded lettuce, diced tomatoes, avocado slices, and a dollop of sour cream.

    Sprinkle with chopped cilantro and serve immediately.
