- 1 medium Yellow onion
- 3 cloves Garlic cloves
- 14.5 ounces Diced tomatoes (with juices)

- 0.5 teaspoon Ground black pepper
- 2 tablespoons Lime juice

Instructions
Thinly slice the yellow, red, and green bell peppers as well as the onion. Mince the garlic cloves.
Place the sliced vegetables in the bottom of the crock pot.
Lay the flank steak on top of the vegetables.
In a small bowl, mix the chili powder, cumin, paprika, salt, and ground black pepper. Sprinkle the spice mixture evenly over the steak.
Pour the diced tomatoes with their juices over the steak and vegetables.
Drizzle the lime juice over the entire mixture.
Cover the crock pot with its lid and cook on low for 6 hours or until the steak is tender and easily shreddable with a fork.
Once cooked, remove the steak from the crock pot and shred it using two forks. Return the shredded steak to the pot and mix it with the vegetables and juices.
Warm up the tortillas in a skillet, microwave, or directly over a gas flame for a few seconds to soften them.
