Ingredients

Preparation

  1. Step 1

    Combine beef steaks and 1/2 cup salsa in food-safe plastic bag; turn to coat. Close bag securely and marinate in refrigerator 6 hours or as long as overnight, turning occasionally.

  2. Step 2

    Remove steaks from marinade; discard marinade. Place steaks in center of grid over medium, ash-covered coals. Arrange onion and pepper around steaks. Grill steaks, covered, 7 to 12 minutes (over medium heat on preheated gas grill, 8 to 12 minutes) for medium rare (145°F) to medium (160°F) doneness, turning occasionally. Grill onion and pepper 15 to 20 minutes (gas grill times remain the same) or until vegetables are tender, turning once.

  3. Step 3

    Meanwhile, combine remaining 1/4 cup salsa, mayonnaise and chile powder in small bowl.

  4. Step 4

    Remove and discard skins from peppers. Cut peppers into 1-inch thick slices; seperate onion slices into rings. Carve steak into thin slices diagonally across the grain. Season with salt and pepper, as desired.

  5. Step 5

    Spread beans on bottom half of each roll. Evenly layer beef, peppers and onions over beans. Spread salsa mixture on top half of each roll. Close sandwiches, pressing slightly together.
