#37 Beef Fajitas
Ingredients:
1 lb sirloin steak
2 tablespoons vegetable oil
1 red bell pepper sliced into thin slices
1 green bell pepper sliced into thin slices
1 small yellow onion
for marinade:
juice of 1 lime
1/3 cup dry white wine
1 teaspoon worcestershire sauce
2 tablespoons vegetable oil
1 minced garlic clove
1/2 teaspoon oregano
1/4 teaspoon ground cumin
1/4 teaspoon salt
1/8 teaspoon pepper
Directions:
Whisk together marinade ingredients. Cover meat with marinate and cover. Refrigerate 1-2 hours, turning several times, bring to room temperature.
In a large skillet, over medium heat, warm oil. Add bell peppers and onion. Saute until vegetables are tender, 6-8 minutes, set aside and keep warm.
Meat options:
Grill:
Preheat grill. In a small sauce pan boil marinade for 1 minute. Grill meat over high heat turning once. Baste meat several times with reserve, boiled marinade. When cooked remove from heat and let rest for 5 minutes. Cut into thin strips and serve with warm vegetables, shredded cheese, sour cream, lettuce and salsa in warm tortillas.
Stovetop:
Cut meat into thin strips. Heat oil in a large skillet (you can reuse the one from earlier) on medium-high heat. Cook meat in oil until cooked through and no longer pink. Serve with warm vegetables and other toppings in warm tortillas.
I served this with a fresh, homemade salsa from Betty Crocker. This was a delicious, light fajita recipe.

My photo is with chicken instead of beef. The seasonings worked well with both.
