Ingredients

  • 1 12oz. package of Heritage Ribeye Steak Strips
  • Kosher salt
  • 1 tablespoon vegetable oil
  • 1 large yellow onion, peeled and sliced lengthwise
  • 2 to 3 bell peppers of various colors, sliced lengthwise into strips
  • Warm flour tortillas
  • Sour Cream
  • Salsa
  • Guacamole
  • Shredded cheese
  • Shredded lettuce

Marinade

  • Lime (2 tablespoons of fresh juice)
  • 2 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil
  • 2 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1/2 teaspoon ground cumin
  • 1/2 jalapeño pepper, seeded, ribs removed, finely chopped
  • 1/4 cup chopped fresh cilantro, including stems

 

Directions

  1. MARINADE:
    Combine the marinade ingredients and mix thoroughly. Place the steak into a sealable bag, coat the steak completely with marinade, seal tightly and refrigerate for 6 hours to overnight. Allow the mixture to sit at room temperature for an hour prior to cooking. Dab off most of the marinade and season with salt.
  2. SEAR:
    Warm a large pan over medium-high heat for 1-2 minutes then add in the tablespoon of oil and heat for 1 minute. Gently add in the Heritage Strips, stirring and frying evenly for 3 minutes. If the pan starts to smoke, reduce heat. Remove the pan and let sit, covered, for 5 minutes.
  3. VEGGIES:
    In the same pan add a little more oil then introduce the onions and bell peppers. Let these sear for 1 minute before stirring, then stir every 90 seconds or so as the veggies sear. Cook for 5 minutes while the meat rests. While the veggies cook, wrap tortillas in damp paper towels and microwave until warm, about 30 seconds.
  4. SERVE:
    Dress the fajitas with shredded cheese, shredded lettuce, salsa, sour cream, guacamole on the warm flour tortillas.
