- Sear the steak for 3-4 minutes per side until a deep brown crust forms and the internal temperature reaches 130°F (54°C) for medium-rare.
- Remove steak from heat and let it rest on a cutting board for 5-10 minutes to lock in juices.
- Slice the steak against the grain into thin strips.
- Warm the tortillas in a dry skillet over medium heat for 30 seconds per side.
- Assemble the tacos by layering steak slices onto the warm tortillas and topping with onion, cilantro, and a squeeze of fresh lime.
