Instructions

Heat 1 tablespoon of the 2 tablespoons olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat.
Add the 2 pounds flank steak in a single layer (cook in batches if needed to avoid overcrowding the pan), and sprinkle with 1 tablespoon of the 2 tablespoons taco seasoning.
Cook for around 1-2 minutes per side. Set aside.
To the same skillet, add the remaining oil and stir-fry the veggies( 3 bell peppers sliced, and 1 large onion, sliced) for 3-4 minutes.
Stir in the remaining taco seasoning. Mix to combine.
Remove from heat and return the steak; stir to combine.
Serve in corn tortillas if desired with toppings of choice like 1/2 bunch cilantro chopped.

Notes

Cut the flank steak against the grain to make the steak less tough. This shortens the beef fibers and makes chewing much easier.
Cook flank steak to medium-rare for the most tender texture. A well-done steak will be chewy and harder to break down.
Use any color of bell pepper you prefer! If you're not a fan of green bell peppers, stick to red, yellow, and orange.
Store any leftovers from this steak fajita recipe in the fridge for up to 4 days.
Reheat them in the microwave or in a pan on the stove with a bit of oil.
Serve with guacamole, salsa, chopped fresh cilantro, and a squeeze of fresh lime!
