Ba de de da de de da de de da de de da de de da… Bonanza! Or Gunsmoke (don't know the theme). Or any of those other Western TV shows that existed far, far before we were born. You'll be transported to a cowboy life, televised or not, when you take a bite of this meaty good steak sandwich, with melty mozzarella and zesty green chili aioli. And if that doesn't tumble your tumbleweed, the oven fries on the side, with chile and cumin, will get you back up on that horse and riding into the sunset. Tip: Wonder how to make fries? Slice a small piece off your tater so you have something to stand it on. Then make 1/4" slices, moving front to back and down. Those slices will be easy to cut into 1/4" fries.

If using 20 oz. steak strips, follow same instructions as 10 oz. steak strips, working in batches, if necessary.

If using diced chicken breasts, pat dry. Follow same instructions as steak strips in Step 4, stirring occasionally until chicken reaches minimum internal temperature, 5-7 minutes.

If using sirloin steaks, pat dry. Cook steaks in another medium non-stick pan over medium-high heat with 1 tsp. olive oil until steak reaches minimum internal temperature, 4-6 minutes per side. Rest, 3 minutes. Steak thickness can vary; if you receive a thinner steak, we recommend checking for doneness sooner. Slice, if desired.
