Steak Fajitas
This recipe was adapted from Well Plated! This was a quick meal that was GOOD. I was shocked at how good it was. I think that means I’m getting better at coooking!
Ingredients:
-4 tablespoons of Worcestershire sauce
-4 tablespoons of olive oil
-1-2 teaspoons of cumin
-1 teaspoon of garlic powder
-1 teaspoon of steak seasoning
-salt and pepper to taste
-2 red bell peppers, sliced
-1 green bell pepper, sliced
-1 white onion, long slices (or how you would want it on your fajita)
-Steak of choice. Most recipes call for flank steak, but I could only find New York strip when I went to the store. You want the meat to be about 1/2 inch thick. That is why we used a ziplock bag and flattened the steak with a tenderizer.
-1 ziplock bag
-Tortillas of choice
Directions:
Preheat oven to broil on high with a sheet pan inside on the top rack (you want the sheet pan hot when the food goes on)
In a measuring glass or glass bowl, put 4 tablespoons of Worcestershire sauce, 4 tablespoons of olive oil, 1-2 teaspoons of cumin, 1 teaspoon of garlic powder, 1 teaspoon of steak seasoning, salt and pepper to taste (and any other seasoning you want like chili powder). Whisk together.
Place chopped veggies in a bowl and toss with mixture you just made. Set aside.
Next, place the meat inside the ziplock bag and use a tenderizer to flatten steak to about 1/2 inch (Honest story: we couldn’t find out tenderizer so we just used a hammer LOL). Then rub steak with steak seasoning. You could also make more of the mixture and dip the steak in that as well.
Once the oven is preheated, get the pan out and place the veggies on one side of the pan. Place in oven for about 5 minutes (keep an eye on it so it doesn’t burn)
Take the pan out and quickly place the prepared steak on the pan. Continue to cook in the oven for 3-4 minutes. No need to flip. If you want your meat more well done, keep it in longer.
Once cooked to your preferences, use warm tortillas and shredded cheese to create your fajita. I used Sieta tortillas and no cheese because I didn’t feel like shredding it (why… I’m not sure because shredding cheese for a meal is always worth it)
