Ingredients
- 5 oz. flank steak, thinly sliced
- 1/2 bell pepper, sliced (any color you fancy)
- 1/2 onion, thinly sliced
- 1 garlic clove, minced
- 1/2 tbsp olive oil
- 1/2 packet fajita seasoning mix

- 1 lime wedge (for that citrus kick)

Cooking Instructions
- Heat olive oil in a skillet over medium-high heat.
- Throw in the sliced bell pepper and onion. Sauté for about 5 minutes until they’re softer than a lullaby.
- Add minced garlic and cook for another minute. Don’t let it burn, nobody likes burnt garlic.
- Push those veggies to one side of the skillet and add the sliced steak to the empty side.
- Sprinkle the fajita seasoning mix over the steak, toss to combine. Cook for 3-4 minutes, until the steak is browned and magical.
- Mix the veggies and steak together. Cook for another 2 minutes, letting the flavors mingle like they’re at a party.
- Warm your tortilla in another skillet or microwave for 15 seconds. Don’t worry, it won’t bite.
- Fill your tortilla with the steak-veggie mix, top with shredded cheese and guacamole. Squeeze that lime wedge over the top.
- Roll it up or fold it like a champ. Dive in!
Suggestions
- Alternative Ingredients: Swap flank steak with chicken or tofu for a different protein adventure.
- Garnishing Options: Fresh cilantro, a dollop of sour cream, or a few jalapeño slices for added zing.
- Cooking Tips: Marinate your steak for a few hours if you have time—although patience is overrated.
