Servings: persons

2 garlic cloves, minced
1 teaspoon onion powder
1 teaspoon smoked paprika
1 teaspoon freshly ground pepper (or more to taste)
2 tablespoons oil
1 pound sirloin flap steak
1/2 cup sherry vinegar
1/4 cup water
1/2 teaspoon salt
1 teaspoon sugar
1 small red onion, thinly sliced
1 jalapeno, thinly sliced
1 can black beans, rinsed
1/4 teaspoon chipotle powder (or chile powder)

Soft sandwich rolls
Salt and pepper to taste
Avocado, sliced
Cilantro
Mexican crema (or sour cream thinned with a bit of milk)

1
Mix together the garlic, onion powder, paprika, pepper, and 2 tablespoons of oil. Toss the steak in the marinade to coat and let it sit at room temperature 30 minutes or refrigerate it for up to 8 hours. Heat the grill to medium-high. Season the steak with salt and grill until its internal temperature reaches 125u00b0 F and it is nicely browned. Let the steak rest for ten minutes before slicing it very thinly against the grain.
2
Heat the vinegar, water, salt, and sugar in a saucepan. Add the onion and jalapeno and let simmer for a couple of minutes. Set aside to cool.
3
Mash the beans with chipotle, cumin, lime, and salt and pepper. Taste the mixture and add salt and acid as needed. Add a spoon or two of water and heat gently before serving.
4
Toast the insides of the rolls slightly, then top them with the beans, steak, pickled vegetables, avocado slices, cilantro, and a drizzle of crema.
