Ingredients
- 1/4 cup olive oil
- 1/4 cup freshly squeezed lime juice
- 2 tablespoons soy sauce
- 2 tablespoons Worcestershire sauce
- 3 cloves garlic, minced
- 1 pound flank steak, thinly sliced against the grain
- 1 large bell pepper (any color), thinly sliced
- 1 medium onion, thinly sliced
- Salt and freshly ground black pepper, to taste
- Warm flour or corn tortillas, for serving
Optional toppings:
- Sour cream
- Shredded cheese
- Avocado or guacamole
- Fresh cilantro
- Lime wedges
Instructions
1. Marinate the Steak
In a large mixing bowl, whisk together olive oil, lime juice, soy sauce, Worcestershire sauce, and minced garlic. Add the sliced flank steak and toss to coat evenly. Cover and let it marinate in the refrigerator for at least 30 minutes, or up to 2 hours for deeper flavor.
2. Cook the Steak
Heat a large skillet or cast-iron pan over medium-high heat. Once hot, add the marinated steak (working in batches if needed to avoid overcrowding). Sear the steak for 4–5 minutes, or until browned and cooked to your preferred doneness. Remove from skillet and set aside.
3. Sauté the Vegetables
In the same pan, add a little extra oil if necessary, then toss in the sliced bell pepper and onion. Sauté for about 5–7 minutes, stirring often, until they’re softened and slightly caramelized.
4. Combine and Season
Return the cooked steak to the skillet and mix everything together. Season with salt and pepper to taste. Cook for 1–2 minutes more, just until heated through.
5. Assemble the Fajitas
Warm your tortillas and fill them generously with the steak and pepper mixture. Add your favorite toppings, fold, and enjoy!
Serving Tips
Pair these fajitas with Mexican rice, black beans, or a fresh side salad for a complete meal. They’re perfect for busy weeknights or for impressing guests at your next casual dinner.
