1Food Prep

Place your favorite garlic marinade, cumin and lime juice in a large, resealable plastic bag. Add your fajita ingredients and shake the bag to coat ingredients.
Seal your bag, pressing out any excess air and place the bag in a shallow baking dish. Let your steak marinate in the bag in the refrigerator, turning occasionally, for up to 4 hours.

2Grill Prep

3The Cook

    • When you’re at temp, put cooking oil on a folded paper towel. Grab the oiled paper towel with long-handled tongs and oil the grate thoroughly.

    • When you’re ready to grill, drain your marinade from the bag and discard. Place your steak on the grate and cook until it's browned on both sides, around 5 minutes per side.*

    • Once your steaks are cooking, place your mushrooms, peppers and onion on the grate and cook them for 4 minutes per side, or until lightly browned and softened.

    • When ready, remove your steak from the grill and allow it to rest for at least 5 minutes before slicing. When you’ve removed your vegetables from the grill, slice and keep warm, adding your sliced steak when ready.

    • Now, using tongs, heat your tortillas quickly over the grill. Fill your warm tortillas with your meat and vegetables and add your favorite toppings as desired.

  • For safe meat preparation, reference the USDA website.
