Ingredients
Steak and Vegetables
- 2 pounds skirt or flank steak
- 3 bell peppers, sliced
- 1 large onion, sliced
Seasoning and Marinade
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 2 teaspoons onion powder
- 2 teaspoons garlic powder
- 2 teaspoons ground cumin
- 2 teaspoons chili powder
- 2 teaspoons salt
- 2 teaspoons black pepper
- 1 teaspoon chipotle powder
- 1 teaspoon dried oregano
- 1 lime, juiced
Instructions
- Preheat Oven: Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C) to ensure it's hot and ready for baking the fajitas evenly.
- Slice Steak: Cut the skirt steak into approximately quarter-inch thick slices, slicing against the grain to maximize tenderness.
- Combine Ingredients: On a large sheet pan, add the sliced steak, bell peppers, onions, olive oil, onion powder, garlic powder, cumin, chili powder, salt, black pepper, chipotle powder, dried oregano, and lime juice. Toss everything thoroughly until all the ingredients are evenly coated with the seasoning.
- Bake: Spread the mixture out in a single even layer on the sheet pan. Bake in the preheated oven for 20 to 25 minutes until the vegetables are tender and the steak is fully cooked.
- Serve: Remove from oven and serve the steak and peppers warm with warmed tortillas and your favorite fajita toppings such as sour cream, guacamole, salsa, or shredded cheese.
Notes
- For most tender steak, be sure to slice against the grain.
- Feel free to customize the spice levels by adjusting the chipotle powder.
- Use any color of bell peppers according to your preference or what is available.
- Let the fajitas rest a few minutes after baking for even juiciness.
- Serve immediately with warm tortillas to enjoy authentic fajita experience.
