Better Than Chili's Steak Fajitas

Why go to Chili's when you can make your own mouth watering, tender, sizzling, super yummy steak fajitas at home? With a little prep and some down time to allow the meat and veggies to marinate, you will certainly be serving a crowd pleasing recipe!

This recipe is fast to easy to prep and fast to cook which makes it a must serve on busy family nights.

I like to prep my cheese, veggies and meat during lunch time while the kids are away at school so all I have to do before dinner is cook everything. The longer you marinate your meat, the more tender it will be!

Here is my version of Food Networks Steak Fajitas:

Marinade: mix 1/2 cup red wine vinegar, 1/4 cup veg oil, 1/2 tablespoon sugar, 1 teaspoon dried or ground oregano, 1 teaspoon chili powder, 1/2 teaspoon of salt, 1/4 teaspoon round black pepper, and two chopped garlic cloves.

Ingedients for Fajitas:
Flour or Wheat Tortillas (we really like the Carb Balance or Wheat Tortillas)
1/2 large white onion, thinly sliced
1 small red and 1 small yellow bellpepper, sliced
Top Sirloin Steak, thinly sliced
Salsa
Sour Cream
Lime, sliced into wedges
Shredded Monterey Jack and Cheddar Cheese
Avacado

Prep: Shred cheese into a small bowl and cover with plastic wrap. Place the onion and bellpepper into a bowl and pour a little of the marinade to lightly cover the veggies. Mix well with your hands. Cover with plastic wrap. Place the sliced streak into a Glad Ziplock bag and pour in remaining marinade. Squeeze out all of the air and zip locked. Massage marinade into meat well. Place veggies and meat in fridge on bottom self and let stand at least 2 hours.
Time To Cook:

Slice avacado or make into guacamole and place in fridge.

Slice lime into wedges and place back into fridge.

Heat large skillet and medium skillet on stove over medium heat. Add the marinated steak into the large skillet and the veggies into the medium skillet. Stir frequently. The Steak will be done before the veggies, so remove from heat but leave in skillet.

Once the veggies are soft and somewhat caramelized, add in the already cooked steak to heat through.

Place into a heat resistant glass bowl.

Everyone will be able to make their own fajitas using the tortillas, cheese, sour cream, avacado, salsa, lime, and fajita meat.

As a bonus this marinade is also great on chicken and steak shish kabobs!
