Delicious Steak Fajitas Recipe

Ingredients:

  • 2 pounds of skirt, flank, sirloin, or hanger steak, sliced into ½-inch strips
  • 1 red pepper, deseeded and thinly sliced
  • 1 green or yellow pepper, deseeded and thinly sliced
  • 1 medium onion, peeled and thinly sliced
  • 3 tablespoons of olive oil
  • 1 tablespoon of lime juice
  • 1/2 teaspoon of chili powder
  • 1 teaspoon of ground cumin
  • Pinch of cayenne pepper
  • 1/2 teaspoon of Kosher salt
  • 1/2 teaspoon of fresh ground black pepper
  • 2 cloves of garlic, minced
  • 6-8 tortillas, warmed

Instructions:

  1. Place the steak in a sealable bag. Place the peppers and onion in another sealable bag.
  2. In a jar with a screw top or tight-fitting lid, combine olive oil, lime juice, chili powder, ground cumin, cayenne pepper, salt, black pepper, and minced garlic. Shake well to combine.
  3. Pour ⅓ of the marinade over the steak, ⅓ over the vegetables, and reserve the remaining marinade in the jar for later use.
  4. Seal the bags tightly and refrigerate for at least one hour, or overnight.
  5. When ready to cook, heat a large skillet over medium-high heat.
  6. Pour the vegetables into the skillet and cook for about 5 minutes, until just tender-crisp. Remove the vegetables from the skillet and set aside.
  7. Add the steak strips to the same skillet and cook for about 7-10 minutes, until cooked throughout.
  8. Return the vegetables to the skillet, along with the reserved marinade. Cook for an additional minute to heat through.
  9. Serve the steak and vegetables with warm tortillas and optional garnishes as desired. Enjoy your flavorful steak fajitas!
