Spicy Beef Wrap
1 pound beef top sirloin, 3/4" thick
1 1/2 tablespoons chili powder
2 teaspoons dried oregano
1 teaspoon ground cumin
6 low-fat flour tortillas, 6-8 inches in diameter
1 cup fat-free sour cream
1 tablespoon prepared horseradish
6 cups lettuce, shredded
1/2 large red onion, chopped
1 large tomato, chopped
Preheat broiler in oven and set rack about 3 to 4 inches below heating elements.
Cut all visible fat from sirloin steak. In a small bowl, combine chili powder, oregano, and cumin. Rub the spice mixture over both sides of the beef and let stand for 15 minutes at room temperature.
Heat broiler; broil steak approximately 3 to 4 minutes per side or until done to your preference using a meat thermometer (see below).
Rare - 120°F
Medium Rare - 125°F
Medium - 130°F
When the steaks are done to your liking, remove from oven, let sit 15 minutes before serving (meat temperature will rise 5 to 10 degrees after it is removed from the oven). Slice steak across grain into 1/8-inch slices.
Warm tortillas according to package directions.
In a small bowl, combine the sour cream and horseradish. Spread 3 tablespoons of the sour cream mixture over the top of each tortilla. Top each tortilla with 1 cup of lettuce; sprinkle with chopped red onion and tomatoes. Divide beef into equal portions and top each tortilla with beef.
Fold one end of a tortilla up about 1 inch over filling then fold the left and right sides over the folded end, overlapping and serve.
Makes 6 servings.
