Hi , everyone and welcome to my kitchen .
My name is Rosana and today I wanna show you how to make steak fajitas .
Look , I'm telling you the marinade is amazing .
The dish as a whole is gonna be incredible .
You're gonna love it .
Let me show you how to make it .
These fajitas are beefy , citrusy , smoky and have a kick of honey to bring balance .
Our first step will be to get the prep done .
It is always fun to pick out colorful bell peppers that bring so much life and excitement .
We're going to need three peppers .
You can pick whichever color you prefer .
I have chosen to start with the green one .
Go ahead and remove the seeds and stam then slice into about half inch slices .
This green color creates great contrast in the dish while also adding its distinctive grassy flavor up .
Next is the red bell pepper which prides itself in sweet and fruity flavor qualities as you prep , all the peppers notice they are slightly watery and with a delightful crunch .
Once you finish slicing it into the same shape and size as the green bell pepper transfer to a bowl and let's move on to the orange one .
This one is very similar in flavor as the previous red one , they share delightful qualities .
Make sure all the peppers are sliced uniform in size so they can cook evenly .
Also take half of a medium white onion and cut into slices as close as possible in size as the peppers mix all the vegetables .
We just prepped into a bowl and sit to the side until we need them for the meat .
I'm gonna be using £1.5 of skid steak .
I'm simply going to cut in half because it's too long of a piece to fit inside my lovely cast iron skillet .
When I flip the steak , I can see remnants of the membrane .
Simply remove it .
The amount of fat on the surface surrounding the steak is great .
So no need to trim any skirt steak works great in this recipe because it soaks up the flavors from the marinade easily .
Now to make the marinade in a separate container , combine all the ingredients starting with a quarter of a cup of olive oil .
Three tablespoons of Worcestershire sauce , two tablespoons of red wine vinegar .
A quarter cup of lime juice , two teaspoons of honey , grade three garlic cloves straight into the container .
Continue by also adding one tablespoon of Dijon mustard , one teaspoon of ancho chili powder , one teaspoon of onion powder , half a teaspoon of ground cumin , half a teaspoon of dry oregano , half a teaspoon of ground black pepper and lastly one teaspoon of kosher salt with to combine and when fully mixed in reserve a quarter of a cup of the marinade in a different container , let the marinating part of this recipe begin , transfer the meat to a container large enough to allow the meat to be fully exposed in the marinade .
Take the marinade and spread over both sides of the meat flip until it completely covered .
I will let it sit in all the flavors for about 30 minutes .
For all of you .
Grilling enthusiasts feel free to grill the meat if desired .
But today we're cooking the steak on a hot cast iron skillet , place the steak on the hot surface and try not to overcrowd it .
You also wanna leave it alone , try not to move it until it's time to flip .
Flip when the under side has brown beautifully and allow the other side to do the same when both sides are nicely browned and the inside is cooked as desired , remove from the skillet and continue cooking the rest of the skirt steak .
The temperature of the surface we cook the steak in is important .
You want it to be hot so it can brown the meat and give the inside enough time to cook to your desired doneness .
By the way , I have the temperature on the stove set to medium high .
Ideally , this cut should be cooked to medium rare or medium .
It did take me approximately 2 to 4 minutes per side .
But the time can vary depending on the heat and also the thickness of the meat .
I will leave the steak dentist temperatures in the description area .
When all of the meat is done , remove the steak from the skillet and let it rest for roughly 10 minutes .
This way , the juices settle in and we end up with a tender and juicy and result also remove the skillet from the heat .
So the bottom does not burn when you are getting ready to slice the steak .
Identify the direction in which the grain is running and cut against it .
This is a very important step to follow .
If you cut with the grain , you will end up with pieces that are hard to chew on .
I love skirt steak for this dish but other cuts that work really well are flat meats and flank steak .
Next combine half of the quarter cup of marinade we reserved in with the veggies and mixed to combine heat , the skillet back up to medium high heat and add in the veggies saute until slightly cooked and softened but not mushy .
We want a slight crunch in them .
It will take about five minutes , make sure to stir frequently .
At this point , they will pick up the flavor from the browning at the bottom of the pan .
It adds another layer of flavor when the vegetables are close to being done , pour in the remainder of the marinade from the quarter cup and add salt if needed and stirred to combine .
When the peppers look done .
Lay the meat over the bed of veggies and remove from the heat .
Finally , as a finishing touch , Sprinkle chop cilantro over the fajitas and add salted taste mixed into combine and you are ready to enjoy .
Ok .
It's time to taste and we're gonna do it with a taco .
I already went ahead and put all of the fajitas in here with bell peppers onions .
Mm It smells so good .
OK , let's do this .
Mm mm .
This is delicious .
Hm .
I love it .
What can I say ?
That's why I have to share with you .
Oh my goodness .
