1 pound skirt steak or top round, cut into 1-inch strips, or chopped into cubes

Instructions

In bowl, season steak with seasoning and salt and pepper, toss to combine and let sit for 15 minutes. Heat oil in large skillet until shimmering. Add beef and cook, turning occasionally, until just cooked through, about 5 minutes. Tilt pan and spoon off the juices as it cooks so the beef can brown a bit. Take pan off heat. (Alternately, you can grill the seasoned steak whole, get some good char marks, then cut in pieces or cubes.)

Chef's Notes

Homemade Chips: Cut 12 corn tortillas into 6 wedges each. Use 6-inch yellow or blue tortillas, or both. In medium skillet, heat about ¼ to ½ inch neutral oil, like canola, until hot and shimmering but not smoking. The tortilla wedges should sizzle when they hit the oil. Fry 6 - 8 tortilla pieces at a time for about 2 minutes, until just crisp. Remove to paper towel-lined plate or pan to drain, sprinkle with a little kosher salt while warm. Repeat with all pieces, layering with paper towels and salting.

My favorite dish at one of my favorite restaurants. Nachos grande at Nacho Mamas. The BEST Tex-Mex in STL.
