Ingredients :

  • 1.5 lbs flank steak, thinly sliced against the grain
  • 3 bell peppers (red, yellow, green), sliced into strips
  • 1 large red onion, sliced
  • 2 tbsp olive oil
  • 1 tbsp chili powder
  • 1 tsp ground cumin
  • 1 tsp smoked paprika
  • 1/2 tsp garlic powder
  • 1/2 tsp onion powder
  • 1 tsp kosher salt
  • 1/2 tsp black pepper
  • Fresh cilantro and lime wedges for serving
  • 8 flour tortillas, warmed

Method :

1. Preheat oven to 425°F (220°C).
2. In a small bowl, whisk together olive oil, chili powder, cumin, paprika, garlic powder, onion powder, salt, and pepper.
3. Place steak, peppers, and onions on a large rimmed sheet pan.
4. Pour the seasoning mixture over the ingredients and toss thoroughly to coat. Spread in a single layer.
5. Roast for 12-15 minutes until steak is cooked through and vegetables are tender-crisp.
6. For extra color, broil on high for 2 minutes at the end of the cooking time.
7. Serve immediately with warm tortillas, fresh cilantro, and a squeeze of lime juice.

Recipe Notes :

Slice the steak while slightly frozen for cleaner cuts. Ensure the pan is not overcrowded to ensure the meat sears rather than steams.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is the best cut of beef for sheet pan fajitas?

Flank steak or skirt steak are the best choices because they are tender and flavorful when sliced against the grain after high-heat roasting.

How do I prevent the vegetables from getting soggy?

Ensure you cut the peppers and onions into uniform strips and avoid overcrowding the sheet pan so the vegetables roast rather than steam.

Can I prepare this recipe ahead of time?

You can pre-slice the steak and vegetables and store them separately in the refrigerator, then toss with oil and seasonings right before roasting.
