Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 pound Beef flank steak
- 3 tablespoons Olive oil
- 2 tablespoons Lime juice
- 3 cloves Garlic
- 1 teaspoon Chili powder
- 1 teaspoon Ground cumin
- 1 teaspoon Paprika
- 1 teaspoon Salt
- 0.5 teaspoon Black pepper
- 1 large Red bell pepper
- 1 large Yellow bell pepper
- 1 large Green bell pepper
- 1 large Onion
- 8 pieces Flour tortillas
- 0.25 cup Fresh cilantro
Instructions
Begin by preparing the marinade: In a small bowl, mix together 2 tablespoons of olive oil, lime juice, minced garlic, chili powder, ground cumin, paprika, salt, and black pepper.
Slice the beef flank steak into thin strips and place them in a large resealable plastic bag or shallow dish. Pour the marinade over the beef, ensuring it's well coated. Seal the bag or cover the dish and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes, or up to 2 hours for more flavor.
While the beef is marinating, prepare the vegetables: slice the red, yellow, and green bell peppers, as well as the onion, into thin strips.
Heat the remaining tablespoon of olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add the marinated beef strips to the skillet, spreading them out in a single layer. Sauté the beef for 4-5 minutes, stirring occasionally until they are cooked to your desired level of doneness. Remove the beef from the skillet and set aside.
Using the same skillet, add the sliced bell peppers and onion. Sauté the vegetables for about 5-7 minutes until they are tender-crisp and lightly charred.
Return the cooked beef to the skillet with the vegetables and toss everything together until well combined and heated through.
Warm the flour tortillas in a separate pan or microwave according to package instructions.
To serve, spoon the beef and vegetable mixture onto each tortilla. Sprinkle with freshly chopped cilantro before serving. Enjoy your soy-free classic beef fajitas with your favorite fajita toppings!
