Instructions
1
Prep
Mix juice from both limes, minced garlic, chilli powder, cumin, and olive oil. Marinate both steaks in the mixture for 10 minutes. Dice the tomatoes and onion for salsa.
2
Grill
Sear both steaks over high heat 3 minutes per side until well charred and medium-rare, then rest 5 minutes.
3
Char
Char the tortillas and tomatoes over high heat 1 to 2 minutes, then chop the charred tomatoes with onion and cilantro into a charred salsa.
4
Build
Slice each rested steak thinly against the grain so it stays tender and juicy.
5
Plate
Divide the sliced steak between warm tortillas, spoon over the charred salsa, and finish with cilantro and lime wedges.
