Cuntz’s recipe was selected as the best of 150 chef submissions. Called “The Durango Strip Loin,” it is a strip loin dry-rubbed with Southwestern spices, topped with a tomatillo avocado salsa verde, calabacitas (corn, queso fresco, local yellow squash and zucchini), heirloom cherry tomatoes and cilantro. The Durango Strip Loin will appear on the restaurant’s fall/winter menu coming out next month.
