Author's Notes

You can make your fajitas seasoning by using chili powder, cumin, cayenne, paprika, garlic, powder, onion powder, salt, and black pepper, and adjust the taste according to your preference.

If you are using packaged fajitas seasoning, make sure to adjust the seasoning according to your preference.
Cooking InstructionsHide images
step 1
In a small bowl, combine the Fajita Seasoning (4 tsp), Ground Cumin (as needed), Dried Oregano (as needed), Garlic Powder (1 tsp), Paprika (1 tsp), Brown Sugar (1 tsp), Salt (to taste), and Ground Black Pepper (to taste). Mix well.
step 2
In a large tray or ziplock bag, season the Skirt Steak (1 lb) with half of the fajitas seasoning mixture and Sunflower Oil (1 Tbsp). Mix well and marinate for at least an hour but better overnight in the fridge.
step 3
30 minutes before you are ready to cook the steak, prepare your veggies. In a large mixing bowl, combine Red Bell Pepper (1), Yellow Bell Pepper (1), and Red Onion (1) with the remaining Sunflower Oil (1 Tbsp), and the remaining half of the fajitas seasoning mixture. Mix well.
step 4
Heat a cast iron skillet with a little oil over high heat until there is some smoke. Cook the steak for about 1-2 minutes on each side or until it reaches your desired doneness.
step 5
Transfer the steak to the cutting board and cover with aluminum foil. Let the meat rest for about 5 minutes.
step 6
Meanwhile, in the same skillet over high heat, cook the veggies for about 5 minutes. Stirring occasionally. Once done, turn off the heat.
step 7
Cut the steak against the grain to desired thickness. Bring the steak strips back to the skillet.
step 8
Garnish with Fresh Cilantro (1/4 bunch). Serve hot along with Small Corn Tortillas (12), Guacamole (1 cup), Pico de Gallo (1 cup), Sour Cream (1 cup), and Lime Wedges (1) on the side.
