Spicy Steak Salad Wraps

These vibrant spicy steak salad wraps offer a fresh and fiery twist on a classic beef dish. By using crisp iceberg lettuce leaves instead of flour tortillas, this recipe provides a light, gluten-free alternative that is perfectly suited for a diabetes-friendly diet. The skirt steak is marinated in a smoky chipotle adobo and lime dressing, ensuring every bite is packed with punchy Mexican flavours. The contrast between the warm, tender beef and the chilled, crunchy salad makes this an incredibly satisfying meal for any day of the week.

Ideal for a communal lunch or a quick evening meal, this dish is as much about texture as it is about taste. The creamy yoghurt dressing helps to balance the heat, while the crushed corn nuts add a delightful salty crunch. Simply place the platter in the centre of the table and let everyone build their own wraps. Serve with plenty of fresh coriander and extra lime wedges for a bright, zesty finish that keeps the palate refreshed.

Ingredients for Spicy Steak Salad Wraps

  • 2 garlic cloves, finely grated

  • 1 1/4 teaspoons sugar

  • 45ml adobo (from a can of chipotles in adobo), divided

  • 45ml fresh lime juice, divided

  • 45 ml extra jungfruolja, uppdelad

  • 450g skirt steak, cut crosswise into 3 equal pieces

  • 3/4 teaspoons kosher salt, plus more

  • Nymalen svartpeppar

  • 180ml plain Greek yoghurt

  • 2 small or 1 large head of iceberg lettuce, leaves separated, covered, chilled

  • 6 radishes, trimmed, thinly sliced, covered, chilled

  • Coriander leaves with tender stems and lime wedges (for serving)

  • 80g lightly crushed corn nuts

Whisk garlic, sugar, 2 tablespoons adobo, 2 tablespoons lime juice, and 2 tablespoons oil in a small bowl to combine. Season steak with salt and pepper and place in a large resealable plastic bag; add marinade. Seal bag and massage steak to coat. Let sit at room temperature 15 minutes, or chill, turning bag occasionally, up to 4 hours.

Whisk yoghurt, remaining 1 tablespoon adobo, remaining 1 tablespoon lime juice, and 3/4 teaspoons salt in a small bowl; set aside for serving.

Remove steak from marinade, allowing any excess to drip back into bag, and lightly pat dry with paper towels. Heat remaining 1 tablespoon oil in a large cast-iron skillet over high until just beginning to smoke. Cook steak, turning occasionally, until deeply browned and an instant-read thermometer inserted into the thickest part registers 54°C for medium-rare, 4–8 minutes, depending on the thickness of the meat. Transfer steak to a cutting board and let rest 10 minutes before slicing against the grain.

Arrange steak, lettuce, radishes, coriander, and lime wedges on a platter or a couple of plates so that each component is visible and easily accessible. Place corn nuts in a small bowl. Serve with reserved spicy yoghurt for spooning into wraps.
