Spicy Steak Fajitas
Ingredients
- 1 ½ pounds beef flank or skirt steak
- 1 red bell pepper
- 1 yellow bell pepper
- 1 orange bell pepper
- 1 green bell pepper
- 1 large onion
- 3 cloves of garlic, minced
- Fresh cilantro, for garnish
- Olive oil, for cooking
Marinade
- ¼ cup olive oil
- 3 tablespoons lime juice
- 2 tablespoons soy sauce
- 2 tablespoons Worcestershire sauce
- 2 teaspoons chili powder
- 1 teaspoon cumin
- 1 teaspoon paprika
- ½ teaspoon cayenne pepper (adjust to taste)
- Salt and black pepper, to taste
For Serving
- 8-10 flour tortillas
- Salsa
- Sour cream
- Guacamole


Instructions
- In a bowl, combine all the marinade ingredients: olive oil, lime juice, soy sauce, Worcestershire sauce, chili powder, cumin, paprika, cayenne pepper, salt, and black pepper. Mix well.
- Place the beef steak in a shallow dish or zip-top bag and pour the marinade over it. Make sure the steak is evenly coated with the marinade. Cover or seal the dish/bag and refrigerate for at least 1 hour, or overnight for better flavor.
- Preheat your grill or a large skillet over medium-high heat. While the grill/skillet is heating up, prepare the vegetables.
- Slice the bell peppers and onion into thin strips. Set them aside.
- Remove the marinated steak from the refrigerator and let it sit at room temperature for about 15 minutes.
- Drizzle some olive oil onto the grill or skillet to prevent sticking. Place the steak on the hot grill/skillet and cook for about 4-5 minutes per side for medium-rare, or adjust the cooking time according to your preference. Once cooked, transfer the steak to a cutting board and let it rest for a few minutes.
- While the steak is resting, add the sliced bell peppers, onion, and minced garlic to the grill/skillet. Cook the vegetables until they are slightly softened and charred, about 5-7 minutes, stirring occasionally. Remove from heat and set aside.
- Slice the rested steak against the grain into thin strips. This will ensure tender meat.
- Warm the flour tortillas on the grill or in a separate skillet for a minute on each side.
- To assemble the fajitas, place a few slices of the cooked steak onto a warm tortilla. Top with the grilled bell peppers and onions. Garnish with fresh cilantro leaves. Repeat with the remaining tortillas.
- Serve the beef fajitas with salsa, sour cream, and guacamole on the side. Roll up the tortillas and enjoy!
Note: If you prefer a spicier kick, you can add more cayenne pepper or even chopped jalapeños to the marinade. Adjust the seasonings according to your taste preferences.
Happy Cooking!
