Cilantro-Lime Steak Fajitas
Skirt steak in a lime, garlic and cilantro marinade for at least an hour, then seared and sliced thin. The peppers and onions cook in a second pan so nothing steams — onions first, since they take longer.
Let the steak rest a few minutes before you slice it. Skirt is thin and it loses everything onto the board if you go at it straight out of the pan. Then cut across the grain, never along it.

- Whisk all marinade ingredients together and let the steak soak in the marinade for an hour or longer. Once the time is up, drain the marinade from the meat.
- Heat a pan and sear the steak in oil to your liking.
- In a separate pan, sear the onions first (I like these more well done) and then add in the peppers.
- Slice the meat across the grain into thin slices and combine with the vegetables.
- Stuff some warm tortillas and enjoy!
