Ingredients
  

  • 4 palomilla steaks (top sirloin steaks)
  • 1/3 cup Mojo marinade (or use storebought)
  • 2 teaspoons Complete seasoning
  • 1 teaspoon Garlic powder
  • 2-3 tablespoons Neutral oil for pan frying
  • 1 medium white onion (thinly sliced)

Instructions
 

  • The steaks can be skipped if they are already thin. Put two sheets of plastic wrap between two steaks on a cutting board. Pound the steaks with a meat mallet until they are 1/4 inch thick.
  • Prepare the shallow dish by placing the steaks in it. Prepare the marinade by pouring it over the meat and seasoning it on both sides with garlic powder and complete seasoning. The marinade should be left at room temperature for at least 20 minutes, but not longer than three hours.
  • A large skillet with oil should be heated over medium-high heat. Once the steaks have been removed from the marinade, place them on a pan, shaking off any excess marinade. For both sides to be browned, cook them for 1-2 minutes per side.
  • The heat should be turned down to medium. Once the onions have softened, add them to the pan and sauté for 2-3 minutes.
  • With white rice, black beans, and/or maduros, serve palomilla steaks with sauteed onions on top. You'll enjoy it!
