Hi, good afternoon. I’m sharing this delicious recipe, made my way. My husband Mago prepares this for us sometimes on traditional grilled meat Sundays here in Monterrey, Nuevo León, and I wanted to make it my own way. I hope you enjoy it.

Steps

1 hour 40 minutes

1

Once the beef is seasoned with salt and lime, place it on a preheated grill and cook to your desired doneness.
2

When the meat is ready, chop it into small cubes so there are no large pieces.
3

To assemble the tortas, first grill the ham in a skillet on the grill. Once it’s heated, add the cheese on top of the ham so it melts.
4

Slice the rolls in half and gently press them with your fingertips. Warm them in the same skillet or directly on the grill.
5

To assemble, layer the Swiss cheese on top of the American cheese and ham, then place this mixture on the bread. Add sliced avocado, tomato, and onion. Serve with pickled jalapeños or salsa, and a grilled pepper with cheese if you like.
