Grilled Flank Steak Fajitas

Difficulty: Medium | Servings: 8 fajitas

Ingredients:

For Flank Steak:

• 2 lbs Flank Steak
• 4 Freshly Squeezed Limes
• ½ cup Olive Oil (plus another ¼ cup for later)
• 1 tbsp Chili Powder
• 1 tbsp Garlic Powder
• 1 tbsp Onion Powder
• 1 tbsp Black Pepper
• 1 tbsp Bird Pepper
• 1 tbsp Cayenne Pepper
• 1 tbsp Espresso Grinds
• 1 tbsp Dried Cilantro
• 1 tbsp Paprika Powder

For Veggies:

• 1 tbsp Cumin Powder
• 1 tbsp Chili Powder
• 1 tbsp Salt
• 1 tbsp Black Pepper
• 3 Bell Peppers (Sliced)
• 3 Sweet Onions (Sliced)

Optional Toppings:

• Tortillas
• Pico de Gallo
• Sour Cream
• Cheese Dip
• Avocado

Instructions:

• Place the flank steak in a large plastic ziplock bag. Add lime juice, 1/4 cup of olive oil, chili powder, cumin, garlic powder, cayenne, and other seasonings to the bag. Seal the bag and massage the marinade into the meat. Refrigerate for at least 2 hours, or up to 8 hours.

• Combine sliced peppers and onions in a medium bowl. Toss them with olive oil and season with salt and pepper.

• Preheat the oven to a high temperature, around 600 degrees. Also, preheat a cast iron skillet in the oven. After marinating, remove the steak, sprinkle with salt, and cook in the skillet for about 4 minutes per side or until it reaches your preferred doneness. Remove and let it rest while cooking the vegetables.

• Place the seasoned peppers and onions on the same skillet used for steak and place back into the oven tossing often until sufficiently cooked and charred.

• Use a sharp knife to thinly slice the rested steak against the grain. Combine with veggies and serve in warm tortillas with your favorite toppings.

Pro Tips:

• Marinating Time:
• For optimal flavor, marinate the flank steak for at least 2 hours, allowing the flavors to infuse.
• Preferred Doneness:
• Aim for medium-rare to medium with an internal temperature of 140 degrees for flank steak.
