Chili Lime Steak Fajitas are so juicy and full of incredible flavours! The secret lies in this incredibly popular marinade!
Ingredients
2 tbsp olive oil
1/3 cup lime juice
2 tbsp cilantro, chopped
2 cloves garlic
1 tsp monk brown sugar
3/4 tsp red chili flakes
1/2 tsp ground cumin
1 tsp sea salt
1 pound steak, rump or skirt
3 mixed bell pepper
1 onion, sliced
1 avocado, slices
lettuce
cilantro
sour cream
Directions
Whisk marinade ingredients together to combine. Pour out half of the marinade into a shallow dish to marinade the steak for 30 minutes, if time allows. Alternatively, refrigerate for 2 hours or overnight. Remove from the refrigerator 30 minute prior to cooking. *Refrigerate the reserved untouched marinade to use later*
FOR SKILLET:
Heat about one teaspoon of oil in a grill pans or cast-iron skillet over medium-high heat and grill steak on each side until desired doneness (about 4 minutes each side for medium-rare, depending on thickness). Set aside and allow to rest for 5 minutes.
FOR VEGETABLES:
Wipe pan or grill plates over with paper towel; drizzle (or brush) with another teaspoon of oil and fry peppers (capsicums) and onion strips. Add half of the reserved marinade, salt and pepper; continue cooking until done.
ASSEMBLE:
To serve steak, slice against the grain into thin strips. Pack into warmed tortillas, extra cilantro leaves, sour cream, sliced avocado (or your desired fillings), and drizzle over the remaining reserved untouched marinade.
