Easy Steak Fajitas
Description
Easy Steak Fajitas start with marinating flank steak in a mixture of apple ale, garlic scapes, cumin, salt, and black pepper. This marinade adds nuanced flavor and tenderizes the beef. On the grill, the steak cooks alongside a foil packet containing sliced onions and yellow bell peppers tossed in olive oil, allowing the vegetables to soften and caramelize without direct flames. The result is a combination of juicy, flavorful steak and tender, slightly sweet peppers and onions. Assembled in flour tortillas, the fajitas are garnished with fresh avocado, a squeeze of lime juice, and salsa, contributing creamy, tangy, and spicy elements. This recipe provides a hands-on meal ideal for casual dining or gatherings where guests can customize their fajitas with the toppings provided.
