3 limes or 1/2 cup lime juice
2 tablespoons granulated sugar

Flip meat over after it is well browned on first side, and allow to brown on the other, about 2 minutes per pound. Reduce heat to low.

In a small bowl, stir together juice of three limes, sugar, cilantro and soy sauce. Add to meat in skillet and stir well. Remove from heat.

On four plates, arrange spinach leaves. Peel the oranges and remove as much of the white pulp as possible.
