HANGER STEAK TACOS WITH CILANTRO-LIME CREMA AND CHARRED LIMES

Steps:

• Heat a large cast-iron skillet over medium-high heat. Sprinkle the steaks with the chile flakes and some salt and pepper and coat with 2 tablespoons of the olive oil. When the skillet starts to smoke, add the steaks, raise the heat slightly and cook, rotating the steaks every 2 to 3 minutes to make sure they have an even char on all sides, 10 to 12 minutes total. Set the steaks aside, uncovered, to rest. This allows all the juices to redistribute into the steak.
