Season the ribeye steak on both sides with garlic powder, cumin, chili powder, salt, and black pepper.
Heat olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Once hot, sear the steak for 4-5 minutes per side for medium-rare, or cook to your desired doneness.
Remove the steak from the skillet and let it rest for 5 minutes. Slice it thinly against the grain.
While the steak rests, make the avocado crema. In a small bowl, mash the avocado until smooth and stir in sour cream, lime juice, and chopped cilantro. Mix well and set aside.
Prepare the vegetables by shredding the lettuce, slicing the tomato, and preparing the pickled jalapeños.
Warm the low carb flatbreads or tortillas in a dry pan over medium heat for about 30 seconds per side.
To assemble the tortas, spread a liberal amount of avocado crema over the base of each flatbread. Top with sliced steak, shredded lettuce, tomato slices, and pickled jalapeños.
Fold the flatbread or roll it like a wrap, and serve immediately. Enjoy your flavorful low carb steak torta!
