1
Marinate the Steak
In a bowl, season the skirt steak with salt and pepper. Optionally, you may add lime juice and garlic for additional flavor. Let it marinate for at least 30 minutes.
2
Cook the Steak
Preheat a grill or skillet over high heat. Cook the marinated skirt steak for about 3-4 minutes on each side or until desired doneness. Remove from heat and let rest for 5 minutes before slicing against the grain.

3
Scramble the Eggs
In a bowl, whisk together the eggs until well combined. In a non-stick skillet, heat a tablespoon of oil over medium heat. Pour in the eggs and cook, stirring gently, until the eggs are just set and slightly creamy, about 3-5 minutes.

4
Prepare the Crema
In a small bowl, combine sour cream, tequila, lime juice, and salt. Mix well until smooth and creamy. Adjust the seasoning if necessary.

5
Plate the Dish
On a serving plate, place a generous portion of scrambled eggs, top with slices of skirt steak, add a scoop of pico de gallo, and finish with slices of avocado. Drizzle with tequila crema before serving.
