- Garlic Powder
- Cumin

- Olive Oil

Instructions
- Prep the steak: Slice your steak against the grain into strips roughly 1/2 inch wide. Season the strips generously with garlic powder, cumin, chili powder, salt, and pepper.
- Sear the steak: Heat olive oil in a skillet over medium-high heat. Add the seasoned beef in a single layer and sear for about 3-4 minutes without moving it.
- Rest the steak: Remove the steak from the skillet and let it rest while you prepare the veggies.
- Cook the veggies: In the same skillet, toss in slices of bell peppers and onion. Sauté until soft and caramelized—about 5 minutes.
- Combine steak & veggies: Return the rested steak to the skillet, stirring gently to mix with the sautéed vegetables. Heat it through for another minute.
- Finish with lime: Drizzle the mixture with fresh lime juice just before serving.
- Serve: Dish out portions, topping with any desired extras like avocado, sour cream, or cheese.
