Fajitas

Simple, easy, and oh so yummy. I went by the local grocery store and picked up the items I needed to fix this Saturday. DH made it home Saturday night in time for a late dinner. :)

Fajitas

Ingredients
12oz beef flank steak
1 tablespoon fajita seasoning
2 tablespoons cooking oil
1 red or green bell pepper, cut into thin strips
1 medium onion, thinly sliced
1 medium tomato, chopped
1 lime
8-inch tortillas

Directions
1. Thinly slice beef across the grain into bite size strips. Place meat in a deep bowl. Sprinkle with 2 teaspoons of fajita seasoning. Stir to coat. Cover and chill for 30 minutes.
2. Wrap tortillas tightly in foil. Heat in a 350* oven for 10 minutes. Meanwhile, heat 1 tablespoon of oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add the remaining teaspoon of fajita seasoning, pepper, and onion. Cook and stir 3 minutes. Remove mixture from skillet.
3. Add one tablespoon oil and meat to the skillet. Cook and stir until desired doneness is almost reached. Drain well. Return onion mixture and beef to skillet. Stir in tomato. Cook and stir until all is hot. Remove from heat; stir in the juice from the lime.
