Enjoy vibrant and flavorful steak fajitas, a quick and gluten-free dinner option perfect for any occasion.


Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 pound Flank Steak (Can substitute with skirt steak)
  • 2 cloves Garlic (Minced)
  • 1 tablespoon Lime Juice (Fresh preferred)
  • 1 teaspoon Cumin (Ground)
  • 1 teaspoon Chili Powder (Adjust to heat preference)
  • 2 tablespoons Olive Oil (For cooking)
  • 2 cups Bell Peppers (Any combination of colors)
  • 1 large Onion (Yellow or red)
  • 0.5 cup Fresh Cilantro (For garnish)
  • 2 wedge Lime Wedges (For serving)

Instructions

  1. In a bowl, combine lime juice, minced garlic, cumin, chili powder, and half of the olive oil. Add sliced flank steak, ensuring it’s well-coated, and let it marinate for 15-20 minutes for optimal flavor.
  2. While the steak marinates, slice the bell peppers and onions into strips.
  3. Heat the remaining olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add the sliced peppers and onions, cooking for 5-6 minutes until slightly softened.
  4. Push the vegetables to one side of the skillet. Add the marinated steak strips to the empty side and cook for 3-4 minutes, stirring occasionally, until desired doneness.
  5. Toss the steak and vegetables together in the skillet, then remove from heat. Garnish with fresh cilantro and serve immediately with lime wedges.
