Ingredients

• 1 pound Flank steak
• 3 tablespoons Olive oil
• 3 tablespoons Lime juice
• 3 units Garlic cloves, minced
• 1 teaspoon Ground cumin
• 1 teaspoon Chili powder
• 1 teaspoon Paprika
• 1 teaspoon Salt
• 0.5 teaspoon Black pepper
• 3 units Bell peppers (assorted colors), sliced
• 1 unit Onion, sliced
• 8 units Tortillas
• 0.25 cup Fresh cilantro, chopped
• 0.5 cup Sour cream (optional)
• 1 cup Guacamole (optional)
• 0.5 cup Shredded cheese (optional)

Directions

Step 1

In a small bowl, combine olive oil, lime juice, minced garlic, ground cumin, chili powder, paprika, salt, and black pepper to create a marinade.

Step 2

Place the flank steak in a resealable plastic bag or shallow dish and pour the marinade over it. Seal the bag or cover the dish and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes or up to 2 hours.

Step 3

While the steak marinates, slice the bell peppers and onion into strips.

Step 4

Preheat your grill to medium-high heat. Lightly oil the grill grates to prevent sticking.

Step 5

Remove the steak from the marinade and let excess marinade drip off. Grill the steak for 4-5 minutes per side for medium-rare (or adjust cooking time based on your desired doneness). Remove the steak from the grill, cover with foil, and let it rest for 5-10 minutes.

Step 6

Meanwhile, add the sliced bell peppers and onion to a grill basket or grill pan. Cook them on the grill for about 7-8 minutes, stirring occasionally, until they are charred and tender.

Step 7

Slice the rested steak against the grain into thin strips.

Step 8

Warm the tortillas on the grill for 30 seconds to 1 minute per side, until soft and slightly charred.

Step 9

Assemble the fajitas by placing steak strips and grilled vegetables in the tortillas. Top with chopped cilantro, sour cream, guacamole, and shredded cheese, if desired.

Step 10

Serve immediately and enjoy your flavorful grilled steak fajitas!
