Steak: Season your steak heavily on both sides with salt and pepper. Heat a 12” skillet, over medium-high, and add just enough oil to coat the bottom of the pan; once hot, add steak, and sear until nicely golden brown and caramelized about 2 - 3 minutes. Flip your steak, turn down the heat to medium; add butter, garlic, cinnamon stick, and oregano to the skillet. Tilt the skillet toward you to make a pool with the butter and using a large spoon, baste the steak continuously until the butter starts to brown and the steak reaches a medium-rare. Transfer the steak to a wire rack and let it rest for at least 10 to 15 minutes before slicing.

Prep salsa: In a blender, add serrano chilis, tomatillos, lime juice, ½ a bunch of cilantro, and ½ of your sweet onion, and blend until smooth. Season with salt and pepper to taste. Finely dice the remaining ½ of your sweet onion.

Slice steak: With a sharp knife, slice steak against the grain, about ½” thick.

Tortilla and serve: In a 12” skillet, heat tortillas until soft and pliable; place on a plate and add top with your steak slices, avocado, cilantro and onion. Serve with a side of your green salsa.
