Step 1
Heat a 12-inch skillet over medium-high until it shimmers, about 90 seconds.
Step 2
Sear steak slices 30 seconds per side without moving until edges brown, then push to the side.
Step 3
Add chorizo to the empty space and cook, stirring, for 2 minutes until fat renders and edges crisp.
Step 4
Lay a tortilla flat, scatter half the cheese on one side, add a handful of steak and chorizo, then top with more cheese and a second tortilla.
Step 5
Slide the mulita into the skillet and press gently with a spatula, cooking 2 minutes until golden and cheese melts.
Step 6
Flip carefully and cook the second side 90 seconds until crispy, then transfer to a plate and repeat with the remaining tortillas and filling.
Step 7
In the same skillet, char the green onion halves over high heat for 1 minute per side until blackened at edges.
Step 8
Serve mulitas hot with charred onions on the side and lime wedges for squeezing.
