Quick and Easy Beef Fajitas

May 17, 2020 by Wrenn Leave a Comment

This Quick and Easy Beef Fajita recipe is the best. It is super simple, and the flavors are amazing. Next time you are craving restaurant style beef fajitas, give our Quick and Easy Beef Fajitas a try.

Tips for cooking the Quick and Easy Beef Fajitas

  • Best served with sautéed peppers and onions.
  • Best grilled but you could for sure make it in a skillet, if you had to.
  • For tender and juicy fajitas, make sure to cook the flank steak whole and then slice into strips once it has rested for 5-10 minutes.

What to Serve with the Fajitas

  • Fresh homemade tortillas
  • Classic Easy Pinto Beans
  • Spanish Cauliflower Rice
  • Roasted Corn Guacamole

Ingredient List

Flank steak
Soy sauce
Worcestershire sauce
Grill Seasoning
Olive oil
Peppers
Onions

How to make the Quick and Easy Beef Fajitas

To begin the process of marinating the meat, pat off the steak with a paper towel and prick the flank steak with a knife on both sides to tenderize. Coat the meat in a liberal amount of soy sauce and Worcestershire sauce and rub them both into the flank steak (this also gives the grill seasoning something to stick to). Then season with grill seasoning, flip the steak and do the same to the other side. Place in a plastic bag and return to the refrigerator. Let the steak marinate for 4-6 hours.

Slice peppers and onions into strips, then season with olive oil, salt and pepper.  Sauté in either a skillet on the stove or place in a grill basket on the grill. Before grilling, take the flank steak out of refrigerator for about 10 minutes to take the chill off. Place on a crazy hot grill and cook to your preference (we prefer to sear steaks on a really hot grill, it produces a well caramelized exterior and ensures that the steak isn’t over done in the center). We prefer our steaks medium rare, so 3-4 minutes on each side on a hot grill should get you there. Pull peppers, onions and meat off the grill and let rest on a warm plate tented with foil for 10 or so minutes.

Slice the steak against the grain and serve on warm flour tortillas.
