Serves 4
1/2c 2% Greek Yogurt
1/4 tsp ground chipotle chili
1 small clove garlic
Kosher Salt
1 tbsp extra-virgin olive oil
1 tsp ground cumin
½ tsp Red Chili Powder (more if you prefer more spice)
Freshly Ground Pepper
4 large Poblano Peppers
1 lb skirt steak (3/4 in thick)
2 romaine hearts – shredded
2 medium ripe tomatoes (approx 8 oz each), cored and chopped
1 medium ripe avocado, pitted, peeled, and sliced ¼ inch thick
1/3 c chopped red onion
Prep medium-hot charcoal or gas grill fire.  If cooking on stove-top use a cast-iron or non-stick pan and heat prior to cooking.

Sauce

Combine yogurt, chipotle, garlic, and ¼ tsp salt in a small bowl.  Set aside at room temperature to let the flavors meld.

Rub

In a small bowl, mix the olive oil, cumin, red chili powder, ½ tsp salt, and ¼ tsp pepper.  Rub this mixture on all sides of the steak.  Let steak sit for 15-30 minutes.
Grill the steak and peppers at the same time.  Grill the peppers on high heat until outside is completely black (looking almost charred), remove, and place in brown paper bag to steam for up to 15 minutes.  Grill the steak covered**, flipping once, until medium rare, approximately 3-4 minutes per side.  Transfer the steak to a large plate and let rest covered for at least 5 minutes. **Searing in pan might splatter.
Grill red onion (or sauté in same pan) for 3-4 minutes and remove from heat. Set aside for garnish.
Peel the peppers, chop off the stem, and cut into thick strips (approx. 3-4 per pepper).
Skewer steak and peppers ( 2-3 per skewer) in ripple pattern – swirl sauce on plate, place skewers on top and accompanied with grilled onions, lettuce, tomato, and avocado.
Serve with white corn tortillas brushed with clarified butter and grilled.
Option instead of tortillas, serve with 2 baked plantains or an ear of fresh grilled corn.
