   12      ounces        Cacique brand Asadero cheese
    6      8 oz.         beef tenderloin steaks
    3      tablespoons   butter
                         Chopped cilantro for garnish -- optional
                         ***Chipotle Sauce***
   15                    Roma tomatoes
    3      medium        onions -- sliced 1/2″ thick
    3      tablespoons   garlic -- minced
    2      teaspoons     dried oregano
    2      cups          cilantro -- chopped
    3                    limes -- juice of
    5                    Chipotle chilies in adob -- canned
                         salt and pepper -- to taste
 
 Prepare the Chipotle Sauce in advance. On a BBQ, grill the tenderloins over a w
 hite ash fire, to desired doneness (for best results the BBQ should be covered 
 or closed, to act as an oven). Heat the sauce through and whisk in the butter. 
 Place a slice of Asadero cheese over each tenderloin and allow to melt. Place m
 eat on serving tray and pour sauce over the top of the meat. Sprinkle with Coti
 ja, and garnish with the cilantro. 
 
 Chipotle Sauce
 Toss the tomatoes in vegetable oil and preferably grill the onions and the toma
 toes, over Mesquite coals. The tomatoes should have charred skins (if not grill
 ing, char tomatoes skins in a very hot skillet and then add the onions with som
 e vegetable oil to a hot sauce pan) Add garlic and continue to cook for about 2
  mins. Add the oregano, cilantro, and the chilies, which have been rinsed and c
 leaned of their veins, and seeds and cook slowly, covered, for about 20 minutes
 . Let cool and then puree in the blender, adding the lime juice and salt and pe
 pper to taste. For spicier sauce, add some of the adobo from the canned chilies
 .
