Chimichurri Steak Fajitas
- 1 whole Recipe For Chimichurri (see My Recipe Box Or Use Store Bought If You Must)
- 1 pound To 2 Pounds Flank Or Skirt Steak
- 1 Tablespoon Bacon Fat Or Olive Oil
- 2 whole Medium Sized Onions (any Kind)
- 1 whole Each Red, Orange And Yellow Bell Pepper, Seeds Removed And Cut Into Strips
- 1 dash Kosher Salt
- 1 package Small Yellow Corn Tortillas, 10 Count
- Optional Garnish: Torn Fresh Cilantro, Sour Cream, Sliced Avocado, Lime Wedges And Your Favorite Hot Sauce
- See my TastyKitchen recipe box for my Chimichurri Sauce/Marinade recipe.
- Pour the chimichurri sauce over the flank steak and let it marinate in the refrigerator for an hour or two.
- Remove the steak from the refrigerator a half an hour before you are ready to grill and bring it up to room temperature.
- Preheat a cast iron pan over medium/medium-high and add the tablespoon of bacon fat or olive oil.
- Once hot add in the sliced onion.
- Leave for a few minutes so it has a chance to caramelize and darken.
- Stir only a few times until the onions are soft, golden and to your liking.
- Remove the onions from the pan and add in the sliced peppers.
- Like the onions, only stir a few times so the peppers have a chance to char a bit.
- Add a dash of salt.
- Remove once the peppers are how you like them.
- Start toasting the corn tortillas over medium heat (you can use the the same pan) for about a minute or so on each side.
- Preheat your grill to 400 F. Place the marinated flank steak on the hottest part of your grill and cook it for about 7-8 minutes per side, depending on the size of your flank steak and how you like your steak cooked.
- Remove it from the grill and let it rest for at least 5-7 minutes under a foil tent.
- Once rested, slice the flank steak thinly on a slight angle going against the grain of the steak.
- Serve the sliced steak on a toasted corn tortilla with the charred peppers and onions and any other toppings you may like.
- Optional toppings: torn fresh cilantro, sour cream, sliced avocado, lime wedges and your favorite hot sauce.
- Enjoy!
