Cook over high heat, 2 to 3 minutes, on the first side. If the steak becomes overly brown, lower the heat slightly as it cooks. Turn the steak on the second side and cook 2 to 3 minutes.

Slice the steak, against the grain, into thin slices. Put a tortilla on a flat surface. Arrange some of the meat, the tomato mixture, cheese and pickled onions in an even line in the center of the tortilla. Remember that the best tasting burritos are ones that have a mix of all the different flavors in the fillings in each bite. Fold the edges into the center and roll it up, pressing as you roll to help keep its shape. Keep it warm on a plate in the oven whole you roll the others.

Recommended wine: Merlot, Cabernet Sauvignon, Pinot Noir

Merlot, Cabernet Sauvignon, and Pinot Noir are great choices for Steak. After all, beef and red wine are a classic combination. Generally, leaner steaks go well with light or medium-bodied reds, such as pinot noir or merlot, while fattier steaks can handle a bold red, such as cabernet sauvingnon. The Robert Mondavi Napa Merlot with a 4 out of 5 star rating seems like a good match. It costs about 30 dollars per bottle.

The wine's multi-dimensional flavors come from grapes grown in distinctly different terroirs of Napa Valley, including the Carneros, Stags Leap and Oakville districts. Traditional techniques, including native yeasts, extended maceration, aging in French oak barrels and bottling without filtration, enhanced the wine's complexity. This wine is delicious with many entrees and cheeses. One of our favorite food pairings is roast turkey with a wild mushroom and walnut stuffing. Roast leg of lamb, rubbed with fragrant herbs and spices, or grilled pork loin also marry perfectly with the wine's luscious flavors.
