Ingredients

  • 1 pound Steak flank, skirt, or ribeye steaks are best
  • 2 tablespoons Olive oil
  • 1 Red bell pepper thinly sliced
  • 1 Green bell pepper thinly sliced
  • 1 Onion thinly sliced
  • ½ tablespoon Chili powder
  • 2 teaspoons Cumin
  • 1 teaspoon Paprika
  • Salt and pepper to taste
  • 1 cup Cooked rice
  • Optional toppings: black beans guacamole, sour cream, shredded cheese, lime wedges, shredded lettuce

Instructions

  • 1. Heat a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add 1 tablespoon of olive oil and swirl the oil around to coat the pan.
  • 2. Season the flank steak with chili powder, cumin, paprika, salt, and pepper. Now add the steak to the skillet and cook for 5-7 minutes per side, or until it is cooked to your desired level of doneness.
  • 3. Remove the steak from the skillet and let it rest for 5 minutes. Once it has rested, slice the steak into thin strips. Be sure to slice against the grain of the steak so that it is more tender.
  • 4. Now add the remaining tablespoon of olive oil to the skillet. Gently place the sliced red bell pepper, green bell pepper, and onion into the skillet. Cook for 5-7 minutes, or until the vegetables are tender.
  • 5. To assemble the fajita bowl: start with a bed of cooked rice in a bowl. Place the sliced steak and sautéed vegetables on top of the rice. Garnish with optional toppings such as guacamole, sour cream, shredded cheese, and lime wedges.
  • 6. Serve with tortillas if desired,  and enjoy!
