Sizzling Steak And Peppers On A Tuesday

Fajitas are one of those dinners where the smell does half the work. Steak, peppers, onions, a squeeze of lime — everybody comes to the kitchen before you even call them.

Cooks on Pepper reach for these when there's a steak in the fridge and about 30 minutes to work with, or when they want dinner everybody builds themselves at the table.

Every recipe here is a real weeknight plan: classic Steak Fajitas, Sheet Pan Steak Fajitas for one-pan cleanup, a Steak Fajita Crunch Wrap, Queso Steak Fajita Skillet with rice, Steak Fajita Stuffed Peppers, and Poblano Steak Fajita Quesadillas.

Quick Tips

  1. 1

    Slice against the grain

    Find the lines running through the skirt or flank steak and cut across them in thin 1/4-inch strips so every bite stays tender.

  2. 2

    Get the pan screaming hot

    Heat a cast iron skillet 4 to 5 minutes before the steak goes in, and cook in two batches so the meat sears instead of steams.

  3. 3

    Marinate with lime

    Two tablespoons lime juice with olive oil and garlic for 30 minutes is plenty; much past 2 hours and the meat turns mushy.

  4. 4

    Rest before you slice

    Let the steak sit on the board 5 to 10 minutes so the juices stay in the meat and not all over your cutting board.
