Step 1
Halve tomatoes and place cut-side down on a hot dry skillet over high heat. Char 3–4 minutes until blackened, then flip.
Step 2
Add onion, chile, and garlic clove to the skillet. Char everything together, stirring once, ~2 minutes until fragrant.
Step 3
Transfer charred vegetables to a blender. Add cilantro, squeeze lime juice, and a pinch of salt.
Step 4
Blend until smooth, about 1 minute. Taste and adjust salt and lime to balance smoky heat with brightness.
Step 5
Pour into a serving bowl. Let cool 1 minute, then serve alongside seared suadero beef and warm tortillas.
