Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C) to roast the garlic.
Cut the top off the garlic bulb to expose the cloves, drizzle with 1 tablespoon of olive oil, wrap in aluminum foil, and roast for 25-30 minutes until the cloves are soft and golden.
While the garlic roasts, prepare the marinade: in a small bowl, combine 2 tablespoons olive oil, lime juice, soy sauce, cumin, chili powder, paprika, salt, and pepper.
Place the flank steak in a resealable bag or shallow dish, pour in the marinade, and let it marinate for at least 20 minutes (or up to 8 hours in the refrigerator for deeper flavor).
Slice the bell peppers and onion into thin strips and set aside.
Once the garlic is roasted, let it cool slightly, then squeeze the softened cloves out of the skin. Mash the cloves into a paste with a fork and set aside.
Heat a large skillet or grill pan over medium-high heat. Remove the steak from the marinade, letting any excess drip off, and cook for 4-5 minutes per side (for medium-rare) or until your desired doneness level is reached.
Remove the steak from the heat and allow it to rest for 5 minutes. Then, slice it thinly against the grain.
In the same skillet or pan, add the sliced peppers and onions. Sauté for 5-7 minutes until tender and slightly charred.
Stir the roasted garlic paste into the cooked peppers and onions, mixing well.
Warm the tortillas in a dry skillet or directly over a gas flame for about 30 seconds each side.
To assemble the fajitas, layer slices of steak, the roasted garlic pepper-onion mixture, and your chosen toppings (such as cilantro and avocado) onto a tortilla.
Serve immediately and enjoy your flavorful Roasted Garlic Steak Fajitas!
