Directions

• Start cooking the rice in 2 c. salted boiling water and basting olive oil. Add the rice, bring to a boil, stir, bring to a second boil, reduce the heat to low, cover and cook for 15 to 10 minutes.

In a saucepan add the can of pink or pinto beans, sofrito disc, dry seasoning, basting olive oil, water and tomato sauce to taste. Bring to a boil, reduce heat, cover and cook in low for about 7 to 10 minutes.

• Meantime, clean the filet of all fat, pat dry, cut in half, then lengthwise, you’ll get about 3 to 4 cubed steaks, then pound flat with your “kitchen texture mallet”.
• Season well with 1 tbsp. of my basting olive oil, 1 tbsp. Angie’s Dry seasoning and 1 tbsp. granulated garlic.
• Next, sear the steaks in their own marinate oil for just few minutes until cooked and golden brown. Allow to rest.

Get your avocado and Done! Enjoy this delicious meal!
