INSTRUCTIONS:
For the steak skewers:

1. In a medium mixing bowl, whisk together the chili powder, cumin, onion powder, garlic powder, smoked paprika, salt, pepper, lime juice, and olive oil. Add the steak cubes and toss to coat. Let marinate in the fridge for 20 minutes. Soak your skewers in water during this time.
