Using an Air Fryer

To prepare the steak, combine the orange juice, lime juice, lemon juice, garlic, olive oil, paprika, cumin, chili powder, oregano, salt, pepper, onion, and cilantro in a resealable bag.
Add the steak and marinate for at least 8 hours or overnight.
When ready, remove the steak from the marinade. Discard marinade.
Preheat an air fryer to 390°F. Place the steak into the air fryer and cook 7–9 minutes, or until a meat thermometer inserted into the thickest part of the meat reads 145°F (for medium rare). Remove the steak from the air fryer and let rest at least 5 minutes.

To prepare the frittata

Preheat the air fryer to 390°F.
Add the onions, peppers, garlic, and oil to a 6" cake pan. Toss to coat. Place the cake pan in the fry basket of the air fryer and set time to 10 minutes. Stir the vegetables halfway through the allotted time.
In a mixing bowl, combine the air-fried onion medley with the black beans, cheese, and steak. Spray the now-empty cake pan with cooking spray and add in the contents of the mixing bowl.
In a separate mixing bowl, beat the eggs, then whisk in the cumin, oregano, chili powder, hot sauce, cilantro, salt, and pepper. Pour the mixture over the ingredients in the cake pan.
Cover the cake pan with aluminum foil sprayed with cooking spray (to prevent sticking).
Set the air fryer to 350°F for 30 minutes.
Cut into wedges and serve with fresh salsa, avocado, and sour cream.

Cook's Notes

Branch out from the grocery store & head to your local farmers' market to use fresh, brown eggs.
