📝 Instructions

12 steps

1. Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).

2. In a small bowl, mix together the olive oil, lime juice, ground cumin, chili powder, salt, and black pepper.

3. Rub the marinade mixture evenly over the ribeye steak. Let it sit for at least 10 minutes.

4. Heat a grill pan or skillet over medium-high heat. Once hot, add the steak and sear for about 3-4 minutes on each side for medium-rare. Cook longer for more well-done if desired.

5. Remove the steak from the heat and let it rest for 5 minutes before slicing it thinly against the grain.

6. Arrange a layer of tortilla chips on a baking sheet or oven-safe platter.

7. Sprinkle half of the cheddar cheese and half of the Monterey Jack cheese over the chips.

8. Evenly distribute the sliced steak across the cheesy chips.

9. Top with remaining cheese and scatter sliced jalapeño on top.

10. Bake in the preheated oven for about 7-10 minutes or until the cheese is completely melted and bubbly.

11. Remove from the oven and garnish with sour cream, guacamole, pico de gallo, chopped fresh cilantro, and sliced green onions.

12. Serve immediately with additional lime wedges if desired.
