Instructions
Fajita Seasoning
- In a small bowl, combine 1 ½ teaspoons chipotle chili pepper powder, 1 teaspoon cumin, 1 teaspoon garlic powder, ½ teaspoon onion powder, ½ teaspoon smoked paprika, ¼ teaspoon salt, and ⅛ teaspoon ground black pepper . Reserve 1 ½ teaspoons of this seasoning for the vegetables.
Fajita Bowls
- In a large ziplock bag, combine 2 tablespoons of the 3 tablespoons olive oil, 3 tablespoons fresh lime juice, 1 teaspoon low sodium soy sauce, and the fajita seasoning that has not been reserved for the vegetables. Add 1 ½ pounds flank or skirt steak and press all of the air from the bag before sealing it to allow the flavors to meld with the steak. Allow it to sit while you prepare the vegetables.
- Heat the remaining olive oil in a 12-inch skillet over medium-high heat. Add 1 cup sliced red onion and allow to cook for 3-4 minutes or until softened and fragrant. Add 3 cups sliced bell peppers of any color and sprinkle with the reserved 1 ½ teaspoons of fajita seasoning. If you like the peppers with a little crunch, cook them for about 2-3 minutes. And if you like them softer, cook them for about 5-6 minutes. Remove the peppers and onions from the skillet and reserve on a plate or in a bowl.
- Melt 1-2 tablespoons unsalted butter on the same skillet and add the steak. Cook for 3-4 minutes for medium-rare, or longer depending on how you like your steak. Flip the steak and cook for another 3-4 minutes. Once finished, transfer the steak to a cutting board and cover with foil. Let it rest for 5 minutes before slicing it into strips.
Assemble
- Fill bowls with 2 cups cooked white or brown rice and top with the steak, onions, and peppers.
- Top with your desired topping and enjoy immediately.
