Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 500 grams beef sirloin
- 2 tablespoons vegetable oil
- 1 medium red bell pepper
- 1 medium green bell pepper
- 1 medium yellow onion
- 3 cloves garlic
- 2 tablespoons fajita seasoning
- 2 tablespoons lime juice
- 8 small flour tortillas
- 2 tablespoons fresh cilantro
- 0.5 teaspoons salt
- 0.25 teaspoons black pepper
Instructions
Thinly slice the beef sirloin into strips. Set aside.
Slice the red bell pepper, green bell pepper, and yellow onion into thin strips. Mince the garlic cloves.
Heat 1 tablespoon of vegetable oil in a large skillet or wok over medium-high heat.
Add the beef strips to the hot skillet, season with salt and black pepper, and stir-fry for about 3-4 minutes until the beef is browned and cooked through. Remove the beef from the skillet and set aside.
In the same skillet, add the remaining 1 tablespoon of vegetable oil. Toss in the bell peppers, onion, and minced garlic. Stir-fry for 4-5 minutes until the vegetables are tender but still slightly crisp.
Return the cooked beef to the skillet with the vegetables. Sprinkle the fajita seasoning evenly over the mixture and stir to combine.
Add the lime juice and stir-fry for an additional 1-2 minutes to coat everything in the seasoning.
Warm the flour tortillas in a dry skillet or microwave, as per package instructions.
Assemble the fajitas by spooning the beef and vegetable mixture onto the center of each tortilla. Garnish with freshly chopped cilantro, if desired.
Serve immediately and enjoy your stir-fried beef fajitas!
