1½ pounds (about 680g) sirloin steak, thinly sliced against the grain
2 tablespoons olive oil
1 red bell pepper, thinly sliced
1 yellow bell pepper, thinly sliced
1 green bell pepper, thinly sliced
1 large onion, thinly sliced
2 teaspoons chili powder
1 teaspoon cumin
1 teaspoon smoked paprika
1 teaspoon garlic powder
½ teaspoon onion powder
½ teaspoon oregano
½ teaspoon salt
½ teaspoon black pepper
Juice of 1 lime
8 small flour tortillas
Optional toppings: sour cream, guacamole, shredded cheese, salsa, chopped cilantro
Preparation:
Marinate the Steak: In a bowl, combine olive oil, lime juice, chili powder, cumin, smoked paprika, garlic powder, onion powder, oregano, salt, and pepper. Add the sliced sirloin and toss to coat evenly. Let it marinate for at least 30 minutes (up to 2 hours for deeper flavor).
Cook the Vegetables: Heat a large skillet or cast-iron pan over medium-high heat. Add a little olive oil, then sauté the sliced peppers and onions until softened and slightly charred, about 5-7 minutes. Remove from the pan and set aside.
Sear the Steak: In the same skillet, add the marinated steak slices in a single layer. Sear for about 2-3 minutes per side, until nicely browned and cooked to your desired doneness. Avoid overcrowding the pan; work in batches if necessary.
Combine and Heat: Return the cooked vegetables to the pan with the steak. Toss everything together and heat for another minute to blend the flavors.
Assemble the Fajitas: Warm the tortillas and fill them with the steak and veggie mixture. Add your favorite toppings and enjoy!
Serving and Storage Tips:
Serving: Serve sizzling hot directly from the skillet to capture the fajita experience. Provide a variety of toppings on the side so everyone can customize their fajitas.
Storage: Store leftover steak and veggies in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days. Reheat gently in a skillet over medium heat to preserve the texture.
Freezing Tip: You can freeze the cooked steak and veggies together in a freezer-safe bag for up to 2 months. Thaw overnight in the fridge and reheat in a skillet.
