Ingredients
- 1 pound steak sliced (top round steak works great)
- 1 can diced green chilies
- 2 cloves garlic
- 1/2 cup beef broth
- 1 package fajita seasoning divided
- 2 tablespoons vegetable oil
- 1 onion thinly sliced
- 1 green bell pepper thinly sliced
- 1 red bell pepper thinly sliced
- 1 package Spanish Rice I used the Knorr Fiesta sides
- 14 ounces beans drained and rinsed (pinto or black.. it's your choice)
- 4 flour tortilla shells
- avocado optional
- shredded cheese optional
Instructions
- Place steak strips, chilies, garlic, beef broth, and 1 Tbsp. fajita seasoning in a large plastic Ziploc bag. Press all the air out and let it marinade for at least 1 hour. Drain most of the marinade into a bowl, but keep most of the chilies in with the steak. Set aside.
- Heat vegetable oil in large skillet and add steak. Stir-fry until brown and cooked through.
- Stir in remaining fajita mix, onion, peppers and marinade. Cook for 2-3 min just until the veggies have barely softened.
- Prepare Spanish rice according to package directions.
- Add beans and stir together with rice until hot.
- Prepare bowls by placing a tortilla inside of the bowl. Add rice/bean mixture to bowl. Add steak and peppers/onions. Top with sliced avocado and/or grated cheese.
Notes
- Don't drain all the liquid out of the marinade before cooking the meat; you'll want some of that delicious flavor to soak in during the cooking process.
- Feel free to use any color of peppers you like! I love using red and green peppers along with thin slices of onion, but you could use yellow, orange, just any colors you want! These are so colorful and flavorful.
- I like to use black beans for these fajita bowls but you can use any kind of canned beans you have on hand: pinto, kidney, navy bean, anything you like.
- You can use Spanish rice (I like the Knorr Fiesta brand but any kind will work) or you can make your own Easy Restaurant Style Mexican Rice.
- Top with sliced avocado, shredded cheese, sour cream, guacamole, diced tomatoes or salsa.
