Directions:Marinate the Steak In a bowl, whisk together olive oil, lime juice, garlic, chili powder, cumin, paprika, oregano, salt, pepper, and soy/Worcestershire.
Place steak in a zip-top bag or shallow dish, pour marinade over, and refrigerate at least 1 hour (ideally 4–6 hours).
Cook the Steak: Heat a large skillet or grill pan over medium-high heat. Remove steak from marinade, pat lightly dry, and cook about 4–5 minutes per side (for medium rare), depending on thickness and liking Let it rest 5–10 minutes before slicing thinly
Sauté the Veggies: In the same skillet, add 2 Tbsp olive oil. Toss in the sliced peppers and onion. Cook until tender and slightly charred, about 6–8 minutes.
Assemble the Fajitas: Return sliced steak to the pan with the veggies (optional: add a squeeze of lime). Serve hot with warm tortillas and toppings of your choice |
