**Optional toppings:**

## Instructions:
### Step 1: Season and Cook the Steak
Start by preparing the steak. If using flank steak or sirloin, make sure to trim any excess fat. In a small bowl, mix together the cumin, chili powder, smoked paprika, garlic powder, salt, and pepper. Rub this spice mixture all over the steak for an even coating.
In a large skillet or grill pan, heat the olive oil over medium-high heat. Once the oil is hot, add the steak and cook for about 4-5 minutes per side, or until it reaches your desired level of doneness (for medium-rare, aim for an internal temperature of 130°F, and for medium, 140°F).
Once cooked, remove the steak from the pan and let it rest for 5 minutes. After resting, thinly slice the steak against the grain into bite-sized pieces. Drizzle with lime juice and sprinkle with fresh cilantro (if desired).
