Here’s a simple flap steak or flatiron steak fajita recipe for your grilling this summer…and into the fall because it can be made in a pan as well as on a grill! The steak is marinated in fresh lemon and garlic, then served with stir-fried peppers and onions (with a little jalepeno for extra spice)! This would make a good weeknight dinner as well. Just start the steak marinating in the morning, and in the evening you are only about twenty minutes from hot fajitas!

For a gluten free option use corn tortillas instead of flour tortillas.
For a dairy free option replace the sour cream and cheese toppings with avocado slices.

Prep Time 1 hr 1 min
Cook Time 15 mins
Total Time 1 hr 16 mins

Ingredients
  

  • 1/4 cup olive oil
  • 3 tablespoons lemon juice
  • 1 clove of garlic mince
  • 1 teaspoon onion powder
  • 1 teaspoon garlic powder
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • Freshly ground black pepper
  • 1 1/2 pounds flatiron or flap/blade steak
  • 1 onion halved and sliced
  • 1 red bell pepper sliced
  • 1/2 of a jalepeno optional, finely chopped
  • 1 green bell pepper sliced
  • 2 teaspoons sesame seeds
  • About 10 7-inch flour tortillas or 15 5-inch corn tortillas
  • 1/4 cup lemon juice for topping
  • Sour cream for topping
  • Salsa for topping
  • Cheddar cheese for topping

Instructions
 

  • In a heavy duty plastic bag, combine all the ingredients from olive oil to meat.
  • Marinate at least 1 hour or overnight.
  • If cooking indoors: Preheat a cast iron pan to medium high heat, coat the bottom with olive oil.
  • If cooking outdoors: Heat up the grill.
  • When the grill/pan is hot, remove the steak from the bag and place in the pan/on the grill. Cook for about 3 minutes per side, until medium rare. Since the steak is very thin, you’ll want to have the grill/pan pretty hot so you get a nice sear on the outside but a medium rare inside. If you want to temp check, inner temp should be around 130 degrees F.
  • Remove the steak from heat, rest for 5 minutes, and then slice into thin strips.
  • While the steaks are cooking: Heat a large skillet to medium heat, coat the bottom with oil, and fry the onions, peppers, sesame seeds, and some salt and pepper (to taste). Cook until tender.
  • Warm the tortillas up in the oven.
  • Arrange the peppers, onions, and meat on the tortilla, cover with toppings, fold the tortillas, and serve!
