Southwest Elk Steak Fajitas
- 1 lemon, juiced- more for accent if preferred
- 2 tablespoons balsamic vinegar
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 4 garlic cloves, minced
- 1 teaspoon dry oregano
- 1 teaspoon ground cumin
- 1 healthy pinch red pepper flakes (to taste)
- 1 lb elk sirloin steak
- 1 red bell pepper, sliced thin
- 1 medium onion, frenched
- 6 large mushrooms, sliced
- butter or olive oil (for frying)
- 1 cup monterey jack cheese, grated
- tortilla
- cilantro
- salt and pepper (to taste)
- Mix together the first 7 ingredients. I add about a teaspoon of chopped cilantro and a pinch of salt and pepper. This will be divided in half to marinate the steaks and serve with the fajitas.
- Preheat your barbeque. Optionally you can fry the steak.
- Saute vegetables on high heat until lightly browned and slightly softened.
- Grill steaks to preferred doneness and rest for 5 minutes. Slice into strips against the grain.
- Serve sliced meat and vegetables on warmed tortillas with sour cream, cheese, remaining sauce, and cilantro.
- I had mixed greens and added them to the wraps. It worked very nicely with the vinaigrette. It is a nice optional touch to add more nutrients and a little extra flavor and texture.
