In this recipe, thin cuts of flap steak are marinated in orange and lime juice and sandwiched between 2 flattened, crispy fried plantains, or tostones. We finish things off with a tangy, garlicky mayoketchup sauce, cheddar cheese, and fresh toppings like lettuce, tomato, red onion, and avocado. It’s crunchy, salty, creamy, citrusy, and delicious!
