Method

Preparation

  1. 1

    Marinate the Steak

    In a bowl, combine olive oil, lime juice, minced garlic, cumin, chili powder, salt, and black pepper. Whisk together until well combined.

  2. 2

    Prepare the Steak

    Add the flank steak to the marinade, ensuring it's fully coated. Cover the bowl and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes or up to 4 hours.

Cooking

  1. 3

    Cook the Steak

    Preheat a grill or skillet over medium-high heat. Remove the steak from the marinade and discard the marinade. Grill or sear the steak for about 4-5 minutes per side for medium-rare, or until desired doneness is reached. Remove from heat and let rest for 5 minutes.

  2. 4

    Sauté the Vegetables

    In the same skillet, add sliced bell peppers and onion. Sauté for 5-7 minutes until softened and slightly caramelized. Season with a pinch of salt and pepper.

  3. 5

    Slice the Steak

    After the steak has rested, slice it thinly against the grain.

Assembly

  1. 6

    Assemble the Fajitas

    On a flour tortilla, layer sliced steak, sautéed vegetables, and desired toppings such as sour cream, guacamole, and chopped cilantro. Serve with lime wedges on the side.
