Grilled Beef Fajitas
- 9 ounces beef (such as flank steak)
- 1 garlic clove
- 1 lime
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 1 teaspoon paprika (hot)
- 1 pinch dried thyme
- 2 red bell peppers (about 400 grams)
- 2 onions
- 4 ounces sour cream
- salt, pepper
- 1 bunch cilantro
- 1 large tomato
- 4 tortillas (preferably whole-grain)
- Cut beef into strips, about 1 cm wide. Peel and finely chop garlic. Squeeze 3 tablespoons juice from lime. In a bowl, mix together garlic, 1 1/2 tablespoons lime juice, 1 tablespoon oil, the paprika and thyme.
- Add meat to lime-garlic mixture and turn to coat. Marinate in the refrigerator for at least 1 hour. Meanwhile, rinse bell peppers, wipe dry, remove seeds and cut peppers into thin slices. Peel onions and cut into wedges.
- Heat the remaining oil in a heavy pan over medium-high heat. Add onions and bell peppers. Cook, stirring frequently, until tender, about 20 minutes.
- In a bowl, combine sour cream and remaining lime juice, then season with salt and pepper. Rinse cilantro, shake dry, pluck leaves and coarsely chop. Mix half with the sour cream.
- Rinse tomato, wipe dry, cut into quarters and remove seeds, if desired. Slice tomato thinly. About 2 minutes before peppers and onions are finished cooking, add tomato to pan and cook until slightly softened. Heat tortillas in the oven or microwave until warmed through.
- Heat a grill pan over hight heat. Add beef and cook until medium-rare, 3-4 minutes. Divide beef and vegetables among tortillas. Top with remaining cilantro, then roll up fajitas and serve immediately with cilantro-sour cream on the side.
