Open in Pepper →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.
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.
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.
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.
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.
