Line a rimmed baking sheet with aluminum foil.
3
In a bowl, gently stir together the avocado, radishes, cilantro, jalapeno, lime juice, and oil; season with salt.

9
While the steak is broiling, stack and wrap the tortillas in a dampened kitchen towel; microwave until hot and pliable, 1 to 2 minutes.
10
(Alternatively, wrap in foil, and warm in the lower third of the oven, 5 minutes.)
