Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 pound Beef flank steak
- 2 tablespoons Olive oil
- 3 tablespoons Lime juice
- 1 teaspoon Ground cumin
- 1 teaspoon Chili powder
- 1 teaspoon Garlic powder
- 1 teaspoon Salt
- 0.5 teaspoon Black pepper
- 1 Red bell pepper
- 1 Green bell pepper
- 1 medium Yellow onion
- 8 Corn tortillas
- 0.25 cup Fresh cilantro
- 1 Avocado
- 0.5 cup Sour cream
Instructions
In a bowl, combine olive oil, lime juice, ground cumin, chili powder, garlic powder, salt, and black pepper. Mix well.
Place the beef flank steak in a shallow dish and pour the marinade over it. Ensure that the beef is evenly coated. Cover and marinate in the refrigerator for at least 30 minutes, preferably longer for more flavor.
While the beef is marinating, slice the red bell pepper, green bell pepper, and yellow onion into thin strips.
Preheat a large non-stick skillet over medium-high heat. Add a dash of olive oil to the pan.
Once hot, add the beef to the skillet, cooking for about 4-5 minutes per side, or until the steak is cooked to your desired level of doneness. Remove from the skillet and let it rest for a few minutes.
In the same skillet, add the sliced bell peppers and onion, and sauté for about 5-7 minutes until they are soft and slightly caramelized.
While the vegetables are cooking, warm the corn tortillas in a separate skillet over medium heat, about 30 seconds per side, or until pliable. Alternatively, wrap them in a damp paper towel and microwave for about 30 seconds.
Slice the cooked beef thinly against the grain.
Assemble the tacos by placing slices of beef onto each tortilla, followed by the sautéed peppers and onions.
Top with fresh cilantro, sliced avocado, and a dollop of sour cream. Serve immediately and enjoy your gluten-free beef fajitas tacos!
