How to Make Steak Fajitas with Meal Prep Tips:

My steak fajitas recipe is perfect for easy meal prep to make weeknight meals even easier! Here’s how to meal prep my steak fajitas:

  • Slice peppers and onion and make the marinade.
  • Place the veggies in one zip-top bag and the steak in another. Add ⅓ of the marinade to each bag, seal it, and turn the bag to make sure that all of the ingredients are coated with the marinade.
  • Put it all in the refrigerator to marinate overnight. Refrigerate the remaining marinade.
  • It’s ready in minutes when I cook it for supper the next evening.

Now that is perfect for a quick and easy dinner!

Steak Fajitas Recipe – Steak fajitas make a quick and easy meal perfect for weeknight suppers or weekend celebrations! Made with beef, peppers, onions and served with a stack of warm tortillas and condiments. They are always a favorite!

Ingredients  

  • 2 pounds skirt, flank, sirloin, or hanger steak sliced into ½ inch strips
  • 1 red pepper deseeded and sliced into thin strips
  • 1 green or yellow pepper deseeded and sliced into thin strips
  • 1 medium onion peeled and sliced into thin strips
  • 3 tablespoons olive oil
  • 1 tablespoon lime juice
  • 1/2 teaspoon chili powder
  • 1 teaspoon ground cumin
  • pinch cayenne pepper
  • 1/2 teaspoon Kosher salt
  • 1/2 teaspoon fresh ground black pepper
  • 2 cloves garlic minced
  • 6-8 tortillas warmed

Optional garnish:

Instructions 

  • Place the steak into a sealable bag. Place the peppers and onion into a separate sealable bag. Add the olive oil, lime juice, chili powder, ground cumin, cayenne pepper, salt, black pepper, and garlic to a jar with a screw top or tight fitting lid. Shake until well combined. Pour ⅓ of the marinade over steak, ⅓ of marinade over vegetables and reserve the remaining marinade in the jar for using when cooking the steak fajitas. Seal the bags tightly and refrigerate for one hour to overnight.
  • When ready to cook, heat a large skillet over medium-high heat. Pour the vegetables into the skillet and cook until just tender crisp, about 5 minutes. Remove the vegetables from the skillet to a plate and add steak strips to the same skillet. When the steak is cooked throughout (about 7-10 minutes), add vegetables back to the skillet along with the reserved marinade.
  • Serve with warm tortillas and desired optional garnishes.

    Simple yet complete recipe… love it! Proof that often the best meals are ones simply done with the right ingredients, proven prep and progression in the steps in making the dish, and time to enjoy the pleasure of cooking for friends and family! And of course in the shared time and socializing in eating the meal!!

    1. Thank you, Jim. I love simple meals I can prepare for my family and friends. i’m glad you loved this recipe.

    Amazing!! Thank you so much for sharing! I tasted the marinade as I made it and thought “this is pretty good…we’ll see how it turns out”…well, it turned out to be the BEST steak fajitas I’ve ever eaten. (FYI – I used sirloin tips).

    The only thing I did different, was to double the amount of marinade. I just felt like it needed more. In the story above, it says to let it sit between 1 hour to overnight and the recipe card says overnight. I let it sit overnight and am so glad I did. 5 star recipe!

    1. I had to add to my original post. The first time I made these, it was just for my husband and myself. My girls are home from college for the weekend, so I made them again…and again, they were a HUGE hit! They can’t stop raving about them. Needless to say, these will be a regular in my house from now on! 🙂

    These fajitas were incredible!! I used leftover steak sliced thin, and marinated it per the recipe. I cooked the vegetables as directed, added the steak just to warm it along with the rest of marinade-fabulous!! Everyone loved it. The marinade makes this dish😃
