Preparation Steps

  1. 1

    Prepare the Skirt Steak

    Season the skirt steak with salt and pepper. Heat olive oil in a skillet over medium-high heat. Cook the steak for about 4-5 minutes on each side for medium-rare. Remove from heat and let it rest.

  2. 2

    Prepare the Black Beans

    If using canned black beans, rinse and drain them. If using dried beans, soak them overnight and cook until tender. Heat the beans in a small pot over low heat until warmed through.

  3. 3

    Assemble the Tlayuda

    On a large, crispy Oaxacan tortilla, spread a layer of black beans. Slice the skirt steak thinly and layer it on top of the beans. Drizzle mole negro over the steak and add shredded quesillo.

  4. 4

    Serve

    Cut the tlayuda into wedges and serve immediately while hot.
