- 1 avocado diced, for topping
- 2 cups taco blend shredded cheese

Instructions
- In a small bowl, combine chili powder, onion powder, cumin, garlic powder, paprika, oregano, and salt. Rub the seasoning evenly over both sides of the steak.
- Heat 1 tablespoon of oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Cook the steak for 4-5 minutes on each side until it reaches your desired doneness. Let rest for a few minutes before slicing thinly.
- In a bowl, combine fire-roasted corn, black beans, and cherry tomatoes. Set aside.
