Instructions

1

Marinate the Steak

Combine the lime juice, cumin, garlic powder, olive oil, and salt in a shallow dish and add the skirt steak. Let it marinate for at least 15 minutes at room temperature or up to 4 hours in the refrigerator.

2

Cook the Fajita Vegetables

Heat a cast iron skillet over high heat and cook the sliced peppers and onions with a drizzle of oil for 8 to 10 minutes until softened and lightly charred. Season with salt and a pinch of cumin.

3

Sear the Steak

Cook the marinated steak in the same hot skillet for 3 to 4 minutes per side for medium doneness. Let it rest on a cutting board for 5 minutes before slicing thinly against the grain.

Common mistakes

Slicing the steak with the grain instead of against it which makes the meat chewy and tough
Not letting the skillet get hot enough before adding the steak which prevents proper searing
