Top Sirloin Steak

* All steaks are, by nature, completely different in price, size, weight and marbling. I trust that you grant me freedom to pick a good one for you.

To fully alleviate your concerns about steak being purchased unseen, I will take a picture of the top sirloin steaks at the store and send them to you for your approval. Beef is expensive enough without any surprises or disappointment from you with the quality (I don't want that)! Sound fair?

Ingredients:

• 1 pound beef Sirloin Tip Steaks, cut 1/8 to 1/4 inch thick
• 1-1/2 teaspoons seasoned pepper blend or garlic-pepper seasoning
• 2 teaspoons vegetable oil
• Salt
• 4 tablespoons reduced-fat or fat-free blue cheese dressing
• 4 medium flour tortillas (8 to 10-inch diameter), warmed
• 4 romaine lettuce leaves

Toppings:

• Sliced tomatoes, sliced red onion

Instructions:

1. Stack beef steaks; cut lengthwise in half, then crosswise into 1-inch wide strips. Combine beef and garlic-pepper in medium bowl; toss to coat.
2. Heat 1 teaspoon oil in large nonstick skillet over medium-high heat until hot. Add half of beef; stir-fry 1 to 3 minutes or until outside surface of beef is no longer pink. (Do not overcook.) Remove from skillet. Repeat with remaining beef and oil. Season with salt, as desired.
3. Spread dressing evenly on tortillas; top with lettuce leaf. Divide beef and toppings, as desired, among tortillas. Roll up tightly.
