- Season and Cook the Beef 🍖
- In a bowl, mix the Ground Cumin, Smoked Paprika, Salt, and Black Pepper. Rub this spice mix over the Beef Steak slices. Heat 2 Tablespoons Olive Oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add the beef and cook for about 3-4 minutes on each side until it’s nicely browned. Remove from heat.
