Instructions

Wash produce before use

Marinate the steak

Cut a small corner from the steak packaging and drain off any excess liquid. Transfer to a plate; pat dry with a paper towel. Season generously with salt and pepper.

In a medium bowl, combine the steak and spicy mojo marinade and toss to coat. Let stand, stirring occasionally, for 15 to 20 minutes or refrigerate overnight (see Make It Ahead).
While the steak marinates, prepare the salsa, garnishes, and tortillas.

Make the salsa; prep the garnishes

Cut the tomatoes into quarters.
Juice half the lime; cut half into wedges for garnish. [Juice 1 lime; cut 1 lime into wedges.]
Coarsely chop the cilantro; set aside half for garnish.

In a medium bowl, stir together the tomatoes, pumpkin seeds, lime juice, and half the cilantro. Season to taste with salt and pepper.

Warm the tortillas

Remove 6 [12] tortillas from the package; save the rest for another use.

On the stovetop directly over a flame, or in a dry medium frying pan over medium heat, warm the 6 [12] tortillas, turning once, until just pliable and warmed through, about 30 seconds per side. Transfer to a clean kitchen towel, cover, and keep warm.

Cook the steak

In a large frying pan over medium-high heat, warm 1 to 2 teaspoons oil until hot but not smoking. Using tongs or a slotted spoon and working in batches if needed, add the steak, letting the excess marinade drip back into the bowl. Cook, stirring occasionally, until the steak is browned and cooked through, 4 to 6 minutes for medium. Transfer to a plate and season to taste with salt and pepper. Add more oil between batches if needed. Do not clean the pan.

Prep and cook the beans

Rinse the black beans.

In the same pan used for the steak, warm 1 to 2 teaspoons oil over medium heat until hot but not smoking. Add the beans, paprika, and ¼ cup [½ cup] water, season with salt and pepper, and cook, stirring occasionally, until the beans are heated through, 2 to 3 minutes.

Serve

Transfer the tortillas to individual plates and top with the steak, beans, guacamole, and salsa. Garnish with the remaining cilantro and serve with the lime wedges.

Chef's Tip

You can turn your remaining tortillas into chips: Heat the oven to 350°F. Cut the tortillas into wedges. On a sheet pan, drizzle the wedges with 1 to 2 teaspoons neutral oil, season generously with salt and pepper, and toss to coat. Bake until crisp, 10 to 12 minutes.

Make It Ahead
The steak can be marinated (Step 1) up to 1 day ahead. Cover and refrigerate overnight. Before cooking the meat, let it come to room temperature and proceed with the rest of the recipe (Steps 2 through 5).
