Ingredients
  

  • 1 lb sandwich steak
  • 1 tbsp sofrito
  • 1 lime
  • 2 cloves garlic smashed
  • ½ tsp sazon
  • ¼ tsp oregano
  • ¼ tsp salt
  • Water
  • Frying oil
  • Lime juice for garnish

Instructions
 

  • Cut sandwich steak into pieces and place in a bowl. Add sofrito, lime, garlic, sazon, oregano, and salt to the bowl and mix the seasonings into the meat well.
  • In a pot over medium heat, add meat and cook until the meat is cooked and all the juices are absorbed.
  • Add enough water to the pot to cover the meat and bring to a boil. Cook the meat for 25 minutes and remove from the pot.
  • Heat a pan over medium heat and fill with enough frying oil to cover the bottom of the pan. Add the meat to the pan and fry until the meat is crispy on all sides.
  • Remove the meat from the oil and place on a paper towel lined plate to drain. Squeeze lime juice over the meat while it's still hot, and serve with tostones. Buen provecho!
