Ingredients
- 1 1/2 lbs flank steak or skirt steak, thinly sliced
- 1 red bell pepper, thinly sliced
- 1 yellow bell pepper, thinly sliced
- 1 green bell pepper, thinly sliced
- 1 large onion, thinly sliced
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 1 tablespoon lime juice
- 2 cloves garlic, minced
- 1 teaspoon chili powder
- 1 teaspoon ground cumin
- 1/2 teaspoon paprika
- 1/2 teaspoon onion powder
- 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
- Salt and black pepper to taste
- Fresh cilantro, chopped (optional, for garnish)
- Lime wedges (optional, for serving)
Instructions
- Prepare the Marinade:
- In a small bowl, mix together the olive oil, lime juice, minced garlic, chili powder, ground cumin, paprika, onion powder, garlic powder, salt, and black pepper.
- Marinate the Steak:
- Place the thinly sliced steak in a large zip-top bag or shallow dish. Pour the marinade over the steak, ensuring all pieces are well coated. Marinate in the refrigerator for at least 30 minutes, or up to 2 hours for more flavor.
- Cook the Vegetables:
- In a large skillet over medium-high heat, add a tablespoon of olive oil. Once hot, add the sliced bell peppers and onions. Sauté for about 5-7 minutes, or until the vegetables are tender and slightly charred. Remove from the skillet and set aside.
- Cook the Steak:
- In the same skillet, add the marinated steak slices. Cook for about 2-3 minutes per side, or until the steak is cooked to your desired level of doneness. Remove from the skillet and let it rest for a few minutes.
- Assemble the Roll Ups:
- Lay out the cooked steak slices on a clean surface. Place a small amount of the cooked bell peppers and onions on one end of each steak slice. Roll up the steak around the vegetables and secure with a toothpick if necessary.
- Serve:
- Arrange the Steak Fajita Roll Ups on a serving platter. Garnish with freshly chopped cilantro and serve with lime wedges on the side.
