Instructions

1. 1

   Make the Marinade - In a medium bowl, whisk together the ¼ cup olive oil, orange juice, orange zest, lime juice, lime zest, soy sauce, garlic, cumin, salt, pepper, oregano (if using), and chili powder.

2. 2

   Prepare the Meat - Cut the steak into ½-inch pieces.

   Cook the Steak - Heat a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add 1 tablespoon of olive oil. Once hot, carefully add the meat in a single layer. Sear for about 2 minutes, then saute until no longer pink on the surface, about 1 to 2 minutes.
