instructions
    1

    Begin by marinating the beef steak. In a bowl, combine 2 tablespoons of olive oil, minced garlic cloves, juice from the lime, salt, and black pepper. Add the beef and coat it well in the marinade. Let it rest for at least 15 minutes.

    2

    While the steak is marinating, prepare the toppings. Finely chop the cilantro and set it aside.

    3

    Heat a skillet over medium-high heat. Once hot, add the marinated beef steak. Cook for about 5-7 minutes on each side for medium-rare, adjusting the time based on your preferred doneness.

    4

    Once cooked, remove the steak from the skillet and let it rest for 5 minutes before slicing into strips.

    5

    In the same skillet, crack 4 eggs and cook them sunny side up or to your liking, about 5 minutes.

    6

    Warm the tortillas in another pan or in the microwave for a few seconds.

    7

    To serve, place the warm tortilla on a plate, add sliced steak, and top with the fried eggs. Garnish with cilantro and serve with lime wedges.
