Easy Garlic Cilantro Lime Steak Fajitas

Prep Time3 hours
Cook Time10 minutes
Total Time3 hours 10 minutes
Course: Appetizer, Dinner, Grilled, Main Course
Cuisine: American, Mexican, Tex Mex

Ingredients

  • 1/4 cup lime juice
  • 1/2 large oinion chopped
  • 3 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1/2 cup chopped fresh cilantro
  • 1 tsp cumin
  • 1 tsp salt
  • 2 tbsp extra virgin olive oil
  • 1 lb flank steak, thinly sliced into strips
  • large strips of colorful bell peppers, seeded & grilled

Instructions

  • Combine all of the ingredients, except the pepper, in a large ziplocking bag. Seal tightly, releasing excess air. Smoosh and squeeze the contents around to evenly disperse the marinade. Refrigerate the meat mixture for at least 4 but up to 24 hours.
  • You have two options here, cooking indoors or outdoors. If cooking indoors use a cast iron skillet, and outdoors cook the meat directly on the grill. Either way, shake off any bits of extra marinade before transferring the meat to a hot, medium high heat grilling surface.
  • Cook 1-2 minutes per side, or until the meat's cooked through, but not dry. Remove the meat to a waiting plate, and continue until all the meat's finished.
  • Serve the meat hot, with warm tortillas, and your choice of toppings. We like a variety of grilled onions & peppers, fresh diced tomatoes, sour cream, and garnishing with shredded cheese & freshly chopped cilantro leaves.
