Well, if it's for a contest, perhaps organize the recipe a little different.
One skirt steak
Avocado, slices
Hoagy rolls or crusty bread, grill toasted?
--
Marinade / sauce ingreds
Salsa.
Directions.

Good idea PPO. I too often have a sliced steak sandwich mañana made with leftovers from a previous day’s grilled steak. Or some slice steak in a tortilla with what-all . Even more often, ( not like steak is real often to begin with), a steak salad. Cold steak is not the same as fresh grilled steak, even if it may taste as good. I think the meat fibers tighten or texture changes up a bit or something, it's not quite the same as hot off the grill.


I don’t marinate steaks as a rule. Sometimes salt, always pepper and maybe some garlic powder. I like steak to taste like steak. Your idea seems to be plan the sandwich from the get- go, skip the first meal with the baked potato fal-der-rah and make it like It was a Planned Event, not an after-thought how to use leftovers.

Then I had to laugh. I was thinking, Some avocado would sure be good with this. Tucked at the bottom of your recipe you got it . I like this.


Good luck with the contest !!

As a PS. I incorporated some slices red bell pepper in a chicken fettuccine the other day. Not cooked per se, more like they were just heated through as they were added towards the end before plating. The fresh pepper flavor moved alittle into the sauce, not in every bite, but you could taste it even if you didn’t have a slice of pepper in your mouth. I didn’t try to achieve this, it just was a good flavor. Well, I thought it is interesting and worth noting for you. Keeping everything pretty simple allows all the flavors to shine.

Normally I do not marinade steaks, but for this mixture I made an exception

Red peppers are showing up in more of my recipes. I love them cooked or raw. I do think the raw red pepper makes the sauce.
