Lesa's Fajitas

1-2 lbs. flank steak or skirt steak
Cut into strips:
2 Bell Peppers and one large Onion-set aside (I like to put these in a zip lock and add about 2 t. of the marinade)
2 Chili Peppers (Anaheim or poblano or jalapeno etc)

Make Marinade:
2 T. Soy sauce
2 T. Olive Oil
Juice of 2 Limes
2 cloves of Garlic Minced
1/2 t. granulated garlic
1/2 t. pepper

Cut 4 shallow slashes across the grain of the steak, prepare marinade, pour over steak rubbing the garlic into the slashes. Marinade at least 2 hours.
BBQ the steak for 10-12 min (about 6 min per side)
While grilling meat.... Grill 2 Chili peppers (I use anaheim, you can use hot ones if you like!) Char the skin then set in a ziplock closed for 5 min or so then peel off the skin and slice chili's into thin strips.
Let steak rest at least 5 min then slice across grain making thin uneven slices.

Heat pan with 2 T. oil then saute the onions and peppers When tender add Chili strips.
Add Meat strips and for a few min then serve with Hot Tortillas
Optional Toppings;
Cheese
Guacamole
Sour Cream
Hot Sauce
Salsa
Lettuce
Tomatoes
**NOTE: You can double the marinade and do Chicken in another bag ...probably could try it with shrimp too!**
