Instructions

Step 1

Combine the chili powder, cumin, oregano, and 1/4 teaspoon of the salt in a small bowl. Sprinkle over the steak; let stand about 10 minutes.

Step 2

Meanwhile, place the potatoes in a small saucepan and cover with cold lightly salted water by 1 inch; bring to a boil. Reduce the heat and simmer until the potatoes are fork-tender, about 12 minutes. Drain the potatoes, return them to the pan, and mash with a potato masher or large fork. Stir in the sour cream, milk, and remaining 1/4 teaspoon salt; keep warm.

Step 3

Spray a nonstick ridged grill pan with nonstick spray and place over medium-high heat. Add the steak and cook until an instant-read thermometer inserted into the side of the steak registers 145°F for medium, about 5 minutes on each side. Transfer the steak to the cutting board, cover loosely with foil, and let stand 5 minutes.

Step 4

Slice the steak on the diagonal into 20 slices. Serve with the mashed potatoes.
