Steak Picado

Submitted by catalinacrawler

"This steak picado recipe is so good and so easy. Its great for nachos or you could have it with beans & rice with a couple of tortillas or it makes a crazy good burrito!! It also makes its own juice so you could probably even add some rice to it and make it a stew. (fyi, i wouldnt leave the broth out as one reviewer suggested, it makes the dish too tomato-ey, more like a chili...its still tasty but its not steak picado)"

Really good meal as soft tacos. It does make alot of sauce so next time I'll leave out the water. Lots of leftovers for another night too. Prepared in the crock-pot on low.

This was a hit at our house! We had it with fresh tortillas and it was a tasty dinner. I also used Rotel tomatoes and green chilis and it had plenty of punch.

This is an awesome recipe for Steak Picado...tastes just like the one at my favorite Mexican restaurant! The only thing I did differernt...I used Ro-tel tomatoes which already have the peppers in them so I didn't use the jalapeños or the green chilies, still lot's of kick to it...GREAT recipe!!! Almost forgot..I used sirloin steak instead of round because that's what I had already.SOOOO GOOD!

This is a GREAT way to use round steak. The flavors are absolutely delicious. I followed the recipe exactly and was exceptionally happy with the results. My hubby says that it was just as good as the Steak Picado he orders from a nearby mexican restaurant.
