THE BEST STEAK FAJITAS

Steps:

• STEAK MARINADE: Combine the ingredients for the marinade in a large shallow bowl. Give it a taste and check for seasonings, adjust to preference. Coat the steak with the marinade and let sit covered in the refrigerator for at least 2-4 hours and ideally overnight. Remove from the refrigerator 30 minute prior to cooking.
• Set a large cast iron skillet or pan over high heat and let heat up for a couple of minutes. Add the steak to the pan and fry on each side for about 3-5 minutes or longer if you'd like it more done. Feel for desired firmness. The 3 minutes/side will yield a medium rare doneness. If the pan becomes too hot, reduce the heat to medium high. Remove the steak from the pan and allow to rest for several minutes tented with a piece of foil. Slice the meat against the grain into thin slices. I like to do so on an angle so the meat slices are tender and thin.
• FAJITA VEGGIES: Add the remaining tablespoon of oil to the pan over high heat, add in the onions, poblano, and bell peppers. Let the veggies begin to sizzle and toss as necessary, cook for a total of 2-3 minutes or longer if you prefer them softer, season with a pinch of salt and pepper.

• ASSEMBLY: Serve them in tortillas or on rice bowls topped with your favorite toppings!

• Marinate in the fridge for 1 hour.
• Wrap your tortillas in aluminum foil-seal.
• Slice green peppers in half-remove seeds.
• Peel and slice your onion into 1/4 inch slices.
• Heat charcoal until grey ash is achieved.
• Place grill grate "directly" on top of hot coals.
• Heat grate for 10 minutes.
• While grate is heating up get a 2 foot length of aluminum foil and fold over once. Crimp sides well to make a foil pouch. You will want to double if not using heavy duty foil.
• Remove steaks from marinade-place directly onto hot grate.
• Discard marinade in baggie.
• Cook for 1 minute 30 seconds per side.
• Remove, place on foil and seal.
• Let stand in sealed foil packet for 15 minutes.
• While steak is resting grill peppers and onion slices to desired doneness.
• Place foil wrapped tortillas on grate for 3 minutes, flip and continue to heat for another 3 minutes.

• Prep time includes marinating time.

BEEF FAJITAS

Steps:

• In a small bowl, place 2 teaspoons cumin, 1 teaspoon chili powder, 1 teaspoon chipotle chile powder, coriander, and 1 teaspoon salt. Zest the 2 limes directly into a bowl, then stir to combine.
• Place the steak on a cutting board. With a sharp knife, carefully make shallow, diagonal cuts across the top of the steak. Repeat, making diagonals in the opposite direction to create a crosshatch pattern. Repeat on the bottom side of the steak.
• Rub the spice mix all over both sides of the steak, then place in a sturdy ziptop bag.
• In the same bowl you used for the spices (no need to rinse in between), whisk together the lime juice, 2 tablespoons olive oil, Worcestershire, and honey.
• Pour into the bag with the steak, seal, then turn the bag to coat the steak evenly. Place on a plate or sheet pan and let rest at room temperature for at least 30 minutes or up to 1 hour, or refrigerate for up to 1 day. Turn the bag periodically to redistribute the marinade. If refrigerating the steak, let it come to room temperature prior to cooking.
• When ready to prepare the beef fajitas, remove the steak from the marinade, shaking off any excess. Pat very dry to ensure you get a nice sear.
• To warm the tortillas, wrap them in foil and place in a 300 degrees F oven while you cook the steak and vegetables.
• Heat 1 tablespoon of the oil in a large cast-iron skillet or similar large, sturdy skillet over medium-high heat. (If your skillet is not large enough to cook the entire piece of steak, cut slice it in half and cook it in batches; you also can cook the steak on an outdoor grill instead.) Cook the steak for 4 to 6 minutes per side, until the meat reaches 140 degrees F on an instant read thermometer. Remove to a cutting board, cover, and let rest for 10 minutes (the steak's temperature will continue to rise as it rests; DO NOT skip resting or it will taste dry). Slice across the grain into thin (1/2- to 3/4-inch) strips.
• Add the remaining 1 tablespoon oil to the skillet. Add peppers and onions. Sauté, stirring often, until they soften and the onions begin to turn golden, about 8 minutes.
• Reduce the heat to medium. Add the remaining 1/2 teaspoon cumin, 1/2 teaspoon chili powder, and 1/2 teaspoon salt. Continue to cook until the vegetables completely soften and are starting to caramelize, about 6 to 8 minutes more.
• Stir in the garlic and let cook 30 seconds, just until fragrant. Remove the pan from the heat.
• To serve, arrange the meat slices on a big platter and drizzle any juices that have collected on the cutting board over the top. Place the vegetables beside the meat. Serve piled inside the warm tortillas, with toppings of choice.

Season with salt and pepper and cook for 30 seconds, then stir in the beans, cherry tomatoes and cooked beef. Cook for 2-3 minutes, or until the beans and beef are hot.

Steps:

• Before searing the steak, dry it with paper towel - keep the marinade.
• Heat a large cast iron over medium-high heat for 3 minutes. Once hot, add a bit olive oil. Sauté the onions until soft, about 4 minutes. Add the bell peppers and keep stirring until soft, about 5 minutes. Place the onions and peppers on a separate plate.
• Raise to high heat and in the same cast iron, add the steak and press down firmly on the surface. Sear for 2 minutes on each side. Reduce heat and add ½ cup of the marinade and cook for 2-4 minutes longer. You want an internal temperature of 130 F. Work in two to three batches if needed.
• Transfer the steak to a cutting board and let it rest for 10 minutes before slicing.
• Meanwhile warm up the tortillas. If you have a gas stovetop, I like to place the tortillas directly on the burner and warm them there so give them a nice char.
