  1. To a large bowl, add steak strips, 2 tablespoons fajita seasoning, 1 tablespoon olive oil, and lime juice. Stir to combine. Cover and refrigerate for 1 hour.
  2. Preheat the air fryer to 390°F.*
  3. In a medium bowl, combine the peppers, onions, remaining fajita seasoning, and remaining oil. Toss to evenly coat.
  4. To the basket of your air fryer, add the veggie mixture. Air fry for 7 minutes. After 7 minutes, shake the air fryer basket to turn the veggie mixture. Then, add the marinated steak on top. Air fry for an additional 7-8 minutes, or until the steak is cooked to your liking.**
  5. Serve on tortillas with pico de gallo, cheese, sour cream, or your favorite fajita toppings.

  • **When Is Steak Done?
  • Determining when your flank steak is done cooking is really up to you. A meat thermometer comes in handy to check for doneness. Just because the outside looks amazing doesn’t mean it’s ready to be removed from the oven or grill. Depending on your preference, here are some internal temperatures you can use as a guide when cooking steak:
  • 125°F = Rare–Bright red center; cool to warm to the touch
  • 130-135°F = Medium Rare–Dark pink red color center; warm to the touch
  • 140°F = Medium–Pink center; completely warm to the touch
  • 145°F = Medium-well–Mostly brown center with a tiny bit of pink in the middle
  • It’s important to remember that it will continue to cook a little bit after it’s removed from the oven or grill.
