Beef fajitas are delicious served with a lot of condiments on the side. My favorites are guacamole, extra cilantro, and beans and rice!

Ingredients

  • 1 pound lean steak, cut into strips

  • ½ cup fresh lime juice

  • ½ tablespoon ground black pepper

  • 1 tablespoon chopped fresh cilantro

  • 2 tablespoons vegetable oil

  • 1 large onion, cut into thin strips

  • 1 julienned green bell pepper

  • 2 lemons, quartered

  • salt and pepper to taste

  • 6 (12 inch) flour tortillas

Directions

  1. Combine the lime juice, ground pepper and cilantro in a shallow dish. Place steak strips into the marinade and refrigerate for two to four hours.

  2. Heat 1 tablespoon vegetable oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add steak strips, and fry until cooked to your liking. Remove meat and set aside.
