Steak fajitas

Serves 4

Ingredients:

  • 2 lbs flank or skirt steak, trimmed
  • 1/2 green pepper, sliced
  • 1/2 yellow pepper, sliced
  • 1/2 red pepper, sliced
  • 1/2 red onion, sliced
  • 2 tsp white wine vinegar
  • Tortillas
  • Salt & pepper

Marinade ingredients:

  • 1/2 cup vegetable oil
  • 1/2 cup soy sauce
  • 2 tsp cumin
  • 1 tsp smoked paprika
  • 1 tbsp chili powder
  • 1 tbsp brown sugar
  • 2 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1 orange, juiced

Method:

Combine ingredients for marinade and marinate steak in a freezer bag for 12-36 hours. Remove meat from bag and wipe off excess marinade.

Preheat BBQ or grill pan to high heat and lightly brush with vegetable oil.

Lay down steak and sear for 1-2 minutes on each side or until a meat thermometer reads 125F.

Remove steak from heat source and allow to rest.

Use a cast iron pan (or the same pan used for the steak) on high heat. Add 1 tbsp vegetable oil and peppers. Season with 3/4 tsp sea salt and 1/2 tsp fresh cracked black pepper.

Add 2 tsp white wine vinegar.

Remove from heat and allow to rest before slicing on a bias against the grain.
