Makes 4 servings

Ingredients:

  • 8 oz. 1-inch-thick steak 
  • 2 tablespoons butter
  • 2 tablespoons chopped garlic scapes
  • 2 tablespoons chopped sweet onions
  • 1 cup coarsely chopped cremini mushrooms (1/2- inch chunks)
  • 6 eggs
  • 1/2 cup shredded Cheddar cheese
  • Salt and pepper, to taste
  • 2 medium tomatoes, chopped
  • 1 cup shredded lettuce
  • 4 soft 8-inch large flour tortillas warmed
  • 1 recipe Homemade Steak Sauce (see Tips for recipe)

Directions:

  1. Heat the grill to medium high heat, 375°F to 425°F, with an indirect heat side.  Cook the steak 3-3-3.  Three minutes on one side, three minutes on the other side and 3 minutes on indirect heat.  Let it rest for 5 minutes. Slice it into 1/2-inch chunks, about 1 cup.   Set aside.
  2. In a large skillet over medium heat melt 2 tablespoons of butter and add garlic scapes, onions, and chopped mushrooms.  Sauté until soft and the mushrooms have released most of their moisture. Spoon mushroom mixture into a bowl and set aside.
  3. In a medium bowl, beat the eggs until well blended. Pour them into the large skillet over medium heat. Cook until the eggs are just about set, turning occasionally with a rubber spatula.
  4. Add the mushroom mixture, steak and shredded cheese. Gently mix until steak is heated and the cheese is melted.  Season with salt and pepper, to taste
  5.  Divide the steak, mushroom cheesy egg filling among 4, 8-inch warm large flour tortillas (about 3/4 cup filling for each tortilla).  Drizzle with the Homemade Tangy Steak Sauce or your favorite BBQ sauce. Top with shredded lettuce and chopped tomatoes.  Wrap and enjoy!

Tips:

  • The steak can be grilled ahead.  Store in a covered container and refrigerate until ready to slice.
  • How to Warm Tortillas: Microwave the tortilla wrapped in a damp paper towel for 15–20 seconds.  Or heat each tortilla in a dry skillet for 10 seconds per side. This prevents the flour tortilla from tearing when you fold it.
  • Homemade Steak Sauce Recipe: In a small bowl add 1/4 cup of ketchup, 1 tablespoon Worcester sauce, 1 tablespoon white wine vinegar, 1 tablespoon soy sauce, 1 tablespoon of brown sugar, and 1/4 teaspoon garlic powder. Mix until well blended.  Transfer to an airtight container.  Store in the refrigerator for up to 2 weeks.
