500g Rump Steak⁠
1 tbsp Smoky Chipotle Fajita & Taco Mix⁠
½ lime (juice)⁠

How to make it⁠
1. Place your steaks on a chopping board and season with the Smoky Chipotle Fajita & Taco Mix. Add the lime juice, 1 tbsp of olive oil, a few sprigs of lemon thyme and a pinch of salt and black pepper. Rub the steak into all the mixture and set aside.⁠
2. Heat up a frying pan and add the remaining olive oil, sear your steaks and cook them to your liking. Add the butter at the end and baste your meat with the juices.⁠
3. Remove the steaks from the pan and wrap them in tin foil, let them rest for 6-7 minutes before cutting.⁠
In the meantime fry your eggs with olive oil and a pinch of salt, and set aside.⁠
Warm up your Soft Taco Wraps over a hot pan and slice your steak into strips.⁠
Serve your wraps topped with the steak strips, a fried egg and smoky Chipotle Salsa. Enjoy!⁠
