Enchiladas Rib Eye with Aguachile

Ingredients:
1/2 red onion, thinly sliced (about 1 cup)

3 tablespoons, plus 1 tsp. olive oil, divided

2 tablespoons red wine vinegar

2 3/4 teaspoons kosher salt, divided

1 teaspoon freshly ground pepper, divided

1 (1-pound) boneless rib-eye steak (1 1/3-inches thick)

1/2 cup fresh lime juice

3 tablespoons fresh orange juice

2 teaspoons soy sauce

1 (1/8 ounce) serrano chile, seeds and ribs removed, finely chopped (about 1 1/4 teaspoons), plus thin slices for serving

1 garlic clove, finely chopped

1 medium-size ripe avocado, chopped (about 3/4 cup)
Directions:
Toss together onion, 2 tablespoons of the oil, vinegar, 1/2 teaspoon of the salt, and 1/4 teaspoon of the pepper in a medium bowl. Cover and chill until ready to serve.

Heat a 12-inch cast-iron skillet over medium-high. Season steak all over with 1 1/2 teaspoons of the salt and 1/2 teaspoon of the pepper. Add 1 teaspoon of the olive oil to skillet; swirl to coat. Add steak and cook, undisturbed, until a brown crust forms, about 5 minutes per side. Transfer steak to a cutting board, and let rest 10 minutes.

While steak rests, stir together lime juice, orange juice, soy sauce, chopped serrano, garlic, remaining 3/4 teaspoon salt, 1/4 teaspoon pepper, and 1 tablespoon olive oil. Reserve 1/4 cup marinade.

Slice steak against the grain; transfer to a baking dish and pour remaining marinade over steak. Cover and chill for 1 hour.

Remove onions from pickling liquid. Remove steak from marinade, and transfer to a serving platter. Drizzle with 1/4 cup of the reserved marinade. Garnish with pickled onions, avocado, and sliced serrano. Sprinkle with flaky sea salt. Serve with tostadas.

Enjoy !!
