Cooking Instructions

  1. 1

    Marinate the Steak

    In a bowl, mix olive oil, lime juice, salt, black pepper, chili powder, and cumin. Add the flank steak and coat well. Let it marinate for at least 30 minutes (or up to 2 hours in the refrigerator).

  2. 2

    Prepare the Vegetables

    Slice the bell peppers and onion into thin strips. Set aside.

  3. 3

    Cook the Steak

    Preheat a grill or skillet over medium-high heat. Remove the steak from the marinade and cook for about 6-7 minutes on each side for medium-rare, or until desired doneness. Remove from heat and let it rest for 5 minutes.

  4. 4

    Sauté the Vegetables

    In the same skillet, add a little olive oil if necessary and sauté the bell peppers and onions until they are tender and slightly charred, about 5-7 minutes.

  5. 5

    Assemble the Fajitas

    Slice the rested flank steak against the grain into thin strips. Serve with sautéed vegetables, queso fresco, sliced avocado, crema, and fresh cilantro. Enjoy with tortillas or as desired.
