Add the black pepper and continue to saute until the onions are translucent and dark on the edges (4 to 5 more minutes). Salt to taste. 4. While the onions are sauteing, grill the meat for 4 to 5 minutes per side or until done. 5. While the meat and onions are cooking, heat up another skillet (cast iron if you have one) over high heat. This will be your sizzling serving pan. 6. When the meat is done remove it from the grill and slice it into thin strips. 7. Remove the extra pan from the heat and dump the onions and any liquid into it if you've made it hot enough the onions should sizzle. Add the meat to the pan and serve immediately with pico de gallo, cheddar cheese, guacamole, and sour cream arranged on a separte plate on a bed of shredded lettuce.
