Steps

  4. 4. Heat a skillet over medium-high heat and add the marinated steak strips.
  5. 5. Cook the steak for about 5-7 minutes, stirring occasionally, until browned and cooked to your desired level of doneness.

  8. 8. Top the steak with avocado slices and chopped cilantro, and serve with lime wedges on the side.
