Ingredients
  

  • 2 pounds Top Round Steak or cube steak
  • 1 Onion Sliced

Marinade

  • 2 Limes Juiced
  • Sazon Seasoning about 2 teaspoons
  • 2 teaspoons Adobo Seasoning

Instructions
 

  • If not already tenderized, place the steaks between two pieces of parchment paper and tenderize with a meat mallet until the steaks are about ¼ inch thick.
  • Place the steaks in a shallow dish and season both sides with the Sazon and Adobo seasoning.
  • Top the steaks with the thinly sliced onion and then season with the fresh lime juice. Marinate for at least 30 minutes, or up to overnight.
  • When you are ready to cook, preheat your Blackstone or griddle over medium-high heat (about 400 degrees). Oil the surface with cooking oil, like avocado oil.
  • Grill the onions for about 3 minutes until softened.
  • Next cook the steaks for about 2-4 minutes per side, until cooked to your desired doneness.
  • Remove the steaks and onions from the griddle and allow to rest for a few minutes. Plate the steaks and top with the sautéed onions.
  • Serve with your desired sides, and enjoy.
