Prep Time 15 minutes
Cook Time 8 minutes

Ingredients
  

  • ½ teaspoon cumin
  • 1 teaspoon chili powder
  • 1 teaspoon instant coffee powder
  • 1 teaspoon cocoa powder
  • ½ teaspoon hot paprika
  • ½ teaspoon onion powder
  • ½ teaspoon garlic powder
  • 1 teaspoon seasoned salt
  • pound steak about 1 inch thick, any kind that you like
  • 2 tablespoons butter

Instructions
 

  • In a small dish, combine all the spices with your fingers. Taste the mixture, and add more salt if you'd like.
  • Rub the spice mixture all over the steak on all sides. Let the steak rest on the counter while you preheat a cast iron or heavy skillet to medium-high heat. When the skillet is very hot, add the butter and let it foam and brown, then add the steak.
  • Cook the steak for about 4 minutes on each side for medium-rare, adjusting the time to cook the steak to your preference. Only turn the steak once, this will allow the spices to get crusty and cook into the meat.
  • When the meat is done, let it rest on a cutting board for 15-20 minutes, then thinly slice it. Save any juices that run out and pour over the steak before serving.
  • Serve with your favorite Mexican-style meal. Enjoy!
