Beef Fajitas

This recipe, from The Pioneer Woman, calls for marinating your whole flank steak.

If you buy the Marinated Fajita meat on sale this week at Harter House, just half the ingredients called for here.

1 whole Beef Flank Steak

1/2 cup Olive Oil

3 Tablespoons Worcestershire Sauce

1/3 cup Lime Juice, Fresh Squeezed

3 cloves Garlic, Minced

1 Tablespoon Cumin

1 Tablespoon Chili Powder

1/2 teaspoon Red Pepper Flakes

1 teaspoon Salt

1/2 teaspoon Black Pepper

1 Tablespoon Sugar

2 whole Medium Onions, Halved And Sliced

1 whole Red Bell Pepper, Sliced

1 whole Orange Bell Pepper, Sliced

1 whole Green Bell Pepper, Sliced

1 whole Yellow Bell Pepper, Sliced

Oil, For Frying

Flour Tortillas, Warmed

Cheese (grated Cheddar/jack Or Crumbled Queso Fresco)

Salsa

Sour Cream

Cilantro Leaves

  

 

In a dish, mix together olive oil, Worcestershire, lime juice, garlic, cumin, chili powder, red pepper flakes, salt, pepper, and sugar until combined. Pour half of the marinade into a separate dish. In one dish, place the flank steak, turning it over to coat. In the second dish, place all the veggies, turning to coat. Cover the dishes with plastic wrap and place in the fridge for at least 2 hours.

 

Prepare tortillas, salsa, sour cream, and cilantro.

 

I think it’s fun to serve both the steak

and the veggies directly on a cutting board

Heat a heavy skillet over medium-high heat and drizzle in some oil. Add the veggies and cook them for a few minutes, until they're cooked but still slightly firm and have nice black/brown pieces. Remove to a plate and set aside.

 

Heat the same skillet (or a grill pan if you have it) over high heat and drizzle some oil. Cook the meat for about 2 minutes per side until medium rare. Remove and allow to rest on a cutting board for 5 minutes.

 

Slice the meat right before serving and serve with all the fixins. Delicious! Enjoy!
