Directions

1. add Homemade Pico and 1.5oz Homemade Guac
2. 1️⃣ Take your 1.5lbs Flank Steak Strip and cut against the grain and at an angle into thinner strips. This just makes the marinating and cooking process much more efficient.
3. 2️⃣ Now make your marinade. Add your garlic, onion and serrano pepper into a small blend a pulse a few times to mince. Then add all the ingredients except potatoes. Blend for 10-20 seconds.
4. 3️⃣ Now combine your strips of flank steak with the marinade. I added mine to a zip lock bag to help evenly disperse the marinade with the steak. Add to the fridge and let marinate for as long as you patience can handle! At least an hour but I do recommend overnight.
5. 4️⃣ Slices your russet potatoes into crinkle cut fries. I use a hand held crinkle cutter I got off amazon for like $10. Highly recommend! Add them to a bowl with ice water to soak for 30 minutes.
6. 5️⃣ Once done soaking, pat the fries dry and then spray with non stick cooking spray. Season with sea salt and garlic powder. Don’t be shy with these! Add to the air fryer on 400 degrees F for 18-20 minutes. Shake them around every 5 minutes or so to make sure they cook evenly.
7. 6️⃣ Preheat your stove top pan to a 7/10 heat. Add a couple strips to your pan but make sure they are not over crowded! About 2 minutes on each side and they are good to go for a nice medium wellness. Wait 10 minutes or so to cut the steak.
8. 7️⃣ Now it’s time to put together the skillet. Add your fries skillet and then add your cheese. Air fry for a minute or so to melt the cheese. Then add your steak, guac, greek yogurt and a few serrano pepper slices.
