Cut the skirt steak or flank steak across the grain to ensure juicy and tender tacos.

Saute the steak and diced onions in a pan with some oil, working in batches to avoid overcrowding.

Season the steak with salt and pepper while cooking.

Once the steak is browned, top it with fresh squeezed lime juice.

Melt about one tablespoon of butter in the pan.

Quickly fry the mini corn tortillas in the melted butter for a couple of seconds on each side.

Assemble the tacos by topping the fried tortillas with the sautéed steak, diced onions, and fresh cilantro.

Serve the tacos with a few lime wedges.
