Special Precautions and Tips:
- If you don't have adobo sauce, you can make your own by simmering together 1/2 cup of ancho chiles, 1/4 cup of guajillo chiles, 1/4 cup of vinegar, 1 tablespoon of oregano, 1 teaspoon of cumin, and 1/2 teaspoon of garlic powder.
- Be sure to let the steak marinate for at least 30 minutes to allow the flavors to penetrate.
- If you don't have a grill, you can cook the steak in a skillet over medium-high heat.
