Deliciousness of the Day


I have been craving fajitas all week. Probably because one night before bed I watched a fajita throw down with Bobby Flay. Mmm there is just something about them that is so good.. the mix of flavors is incredible! And there are so many different combinations!

I wasn't able to find the recipe for the throw down contestant online.. but this version from Real Simple looks just as delicious. 


Whatcha Need: 

1 tablespoon olive oil
1 1-pound skirt steak, cut into thirds
1/2 teaspoon kosher salt
1/4 teaspoon black pepper
1 large yellow onion, thinly sliced
1 large bell pepper (any color), thinly sliced
1 12-count package corn or small flour tortillas
sour cream, salsa, and guacamole for serving

How to do it: 

Heat the oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Season the steak with ¼ teaspoon of the salt and the pepper. Cook for 3 minutes. Turn and move to the sides of the skillet.

Add the onion and cook, stirring occasionally, for 2 minutes. Add the bell pepper, season with the remaining salt, and cook until the vegetables are softened and the steak is medium-rare, 3 to 4 minutes more. Transfer the onion and bell pepper to a bowl. Transfer the steak to a cutting board.

Place the tortillas in the microwave and warm on high for 1½ minutes. Slice the steak and serve with the onion, bell pepper, tortillas, sour cream, salsa, and guacamole.

T.G.I.F !!!!
