Steps:

• Cut top sirloin into 1/4" thick steaks. If using palomilla steaks they should already be cut and ready to be marinated.
• Pound steaks in between 2 pieces of parchment paper or plastic wrap. I use a rolling pin for even distribution but of course a mallet can be used too. Salt both sides of meat and transfer to a bowl for marinating.
• Add the juice of 2 limes, 1 cup of naranja agria, and 1/4 cup of smashed garlic. Cover and let marinate for at least 30 minutes. Prepare onion while steaks are marinating. Peel and cut onion into half moon slices.
• Heat a cast iron skillet on medium high heat and add two tablespoons of olive oil. Cook each steak about 3-4 minutes per side.
• Add in a few onion slices while steaks are cooking. Before taking the steak out of the pan pour in a couple of tablespoons of the marinade to make a little bit of sauce to pour on top of steak with the onions.
