These are served the same way as the regular kind. I recommend:

Sliced avocado
Salsa – Especially tomatillo avocado salsa verde!
Lime wedges
Sliced jalapenos
Fresh cilantro
Sour cream
WHAT CUT OF STEAK SHOULD I USE?
It is typically made with flank steak/skirt steak. When you use them for fajitas, both work great and become very tender.

Back to the pot, add the steak that was cooked from the first batch.
