Special Precautions and Tips:
- If you don't have adobo sauce, you can make your own by blending together 1 cup of ancho chiles, 1/2 cup of vinegar, 1/4 cup of water, 1/4 cup of oil, and 1 tablespoon of salt.
- To make the steak even more tender, you can marinate it for longer.
- Be careful not to overcook the steak, as it will become tough.
