  3. Salt and pepper to taste

Instructions:

Step 1: Marinate and Cook the Steak

  1. In a bowl, combine sliced sirloin steak with olive oil, chili powder, cumin, salt, and pepper. Marinate for at least 30 minutes.
  2. Heat a skillet over medium-high heat and cook the marinated steak until browned and cooked to your liking. Set aside.
