Preparation

Make the spice rub:

• In a small bowl, combine all the spice rub ingredients.

Make the filling:

• Brush the lime juice on both sides of each piece of meat and rub both sides with the spice rub. (You may not need all of the spice rub.)
• Put the oil in a large, heavy skillet, preferably cast iron, and set it over medium-high heat until very hot. Cook the meat until it’s well browned and just cooked through, 3 to 4 min. per side for medium rare. Transfer to a cutting board and let rest for 3 to 5 min. Holding a knife at a 45-degree angle, thinly slice the meat crosswise.

To serve:

• Put the sliced steak in a heated dish, sprinkle with salt, and set on the table. Next to it set the hot tortillas, guacamole, pico de gallo, and tomatillo salsa so each person can assemble his or her own tacos.
