When you have a surplus of
whatever, you want to use it to the best of your abilities. Unfortunately, I'm
not talking about money; but, I am talking about vegetables growing in the
garden this summer.
I just happened to have a lot of peppers that were given to us by a coworker. So, in an effort to use the peppers, we thought about making steak fajitas. Steak fajitas are very easy to make and the flavor of sautéed onions and peppers is unmatchable.Using tender flank steak, you can do them on the grille right before dinner, while all the other components can be made and be ready ahead of time.

Marinade
Juice of 1 lime (you can use 1 tablespoon of vinegar if you don't have limes)
2 tablespoons of olive oil
1 tablespoon of granulated
garlic
1/2 teaspoon cumin
2 tablespoons of fresh chopped cilantro
Ingredients
1 Tablespoon olive oil
1 lb of flank steak
1 large yellow onion peeled
and sliced.
2 peppers sliced lengthwise
into strips
In a 1 gallon plastic bag, add all the ingredients for
the marinade including the steak. Let the steak absorb the flavors for at least
1 hour. Before cooking the steak, pat dry with a paper towel to eliminate the
excess liquid. Sprinkle with salt and pepper to taste and cook on a very hot grill for 4 minutes per
side. Remove from heat, cover with aluminum foil and let it rest for at least 5
minutes.
