Steak Fajitas Recipe

Prepare the Marinade

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

Marinate the Steak

Place the flank steak in a large resealable plastic bag or a shallow dish. Pour the marinade over the steak, ensuring it is well coated. Seal the bag or cover the dish and marinate in the refrigerator for at least 1 hour, or up to overnight for more flavor.

Prepare the Vegetables

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

Cook the Steak

Heat a large skillet or grill pan over medium-high heat. Remove the steak from the marinade, letting excess drip off. Cook the steak for about 4-5 minutes on each side for medium-rare, or longer depending on your desired doneness. Remove the steak from the pan and let it rest for about 5 minutes before slicing.

Sauté the Vegetables

In the same skillet, add the sliced bell peppers and onion. Sauté for about 5-7 minutes until they are tender and slightly charred.

Slice the Steak

After resting, slice the steak against the grain into thin strips.

Assemble the Fajitas

Warm the tortillas in a dry skillet or microwave. To assemble, place some sliced steak and sautéed vegetables on each tortilla. Top with fresh cilantro, sour cream, and salsa as desired.
