Steak Marinade

Vegetables

Serving

Method

Marinade the Steak

  1. 1

    Prepare the Marinade

    In a bowl, whisk together olive oil, lime juice, garlic powder, cumin, chili powder, salt, and black pepper.

  2. 2

    Marinate the Steak

    Place the flank steak in a resealable plastic bag or shallow dish and pour the marinade over it. Seal the bag or cover the dish and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes, preferably 2 hours for best flavor.

Cook the Vegetables

  1. 3

    Prepare the Vegetables

    While the steak marinates, slice the bell peppers and onion into thin strips.

  2. 4

    Sauté the Vegetables

    In a large skillet, heat 1 tablespoon of olive oil over medium-high heat. Add the sliced peppers and onions, season with salt and pepper, and sauté for about 5-7 minutes until they are tender and slightly charred. Remove from heat and set aside.

Cook the Steak

  1. 5

    Grill the Steak

    Preheat a grill or grill pan over high heat. Remove the steak from the marinade and let excess marinade drip off. Grill the steak for about 4-5 minutes per side for medium-rare, or until cooked to your desired doneness.

  2. 6

    Rest the Steak

    Remove the steak from the grill and let it rest for 5 minutes before slicing it against the grain into thin strips.

Assemble the Fajitas

  1. 7

    Warm the Tortillas

    While the steak rests, warm the flour tortillas in a skillet over low heat or in the microwave.

  2. 8

    Serve

    Place sliced steak, sautéed peppers, and onions on each tortilla. Top with sour cream, guacamole, and salsa as desired. Roll up the tortillas and enjoy your sizzling steak fajitas!
