Ingredients

Scale

Main Ingredients:

  • 1 ½ lbs flank steak (or skirt steak), sliced thinly
  • 3 bell peppers (red, yellow, and green), sliced into strips
  • 1 large red onion, sliced thinly
  • 2 tbsp olive oil
  • Juice of 1 lime
  • 8 small flour or corn tortillas

Seasoning Mix:

  • 1 tsp smoked paprika
  • 1 tsp chili powder
  • ½ tsp cumin
  • ½ tsp garlic powder
  • ½ tsp onion powder
  • ½ tsp salt
  • ¼ tsp black pepper
  • ¼ tsp crushed red pepper flakes (optional for spice lovers)

Toppings (Optional but Recommended):

  • Fresh cilantro
  • Avocado slices or guacamole
  • Sour cream or Greek yogurt
  • Shredded cheese
  • Salsa or pico de gallo

Instructions

Step1: Prepare the Ingredients

Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper for easy cleanup.

Step2: Make the Marinade

In a small bowl, whisk together the olive oil, lime juice, and all the spices. This will be the key to flavorful, juicy steak fajitas!

Step3: Coat the Steak and Vegetables

Place the sliced steak, bell peppers, and onions on the prepared sheet pan. Drizzle the marinade over everything and toss to coat evenly.

Step4: Bake to Perfection

Spread everything out in a single layer. Bake for 12-15 minutes, or until the steak is cooked to your preferred doneness and the veggies are slightly charred.

Step5: Warm the Tortillas

While the fajitas are baking, warm the tortillas in a dry skillet or directly over an open flame for a smoky flavor.

Step6: Serve and Enjoy

Spoon the sizzling steak and veggies into tortillas, add your favorite toppings, and enjoy the best homemade oven-baked steak fajitas!

Notes

  • Use fresh lime juice to brighten up the flavors.
  • Slice the steak against the grain for a tender bite.
  • Don’t overcrowd the pan—spreading the ingredients ensures even cooking.
