Time 40m

Yield 6

Number Of Ingredients 14

1 1/3 lb beef flank steak, trimmed of visible fat
1 package (1 oz) Old El Paso™ original taco seasoning mix
1 tablespoon packed brown sugar
1 tablespoon finely chopped garlic
1/4 teaspoon ground red pepper (cayenne)
1/4 cup lime juice
2 large red or yellow bell peppers, cut into 1/4-inch strips (about 3 cups)
1 cup sliced onions
1 tablespoon vegetable oil
1 teaspoon ground cumin
1 teaspoon ground coriander
1/2 teaspoon salt
6 (8-inch) Old El Paso™ flour tortillas for burritos (from 11.5-oz package), heated as directed on package
Chopped fresh cilantro leaves, sliced green onions, avocado slices, sour cream and lime slices, as desired

Steps:

  • Place beef in large, resealable food-storage plastic bag. In small bowl, mix taco seasoning mix, brown sugar, garlic, ground red pepper and lime juice. Pour marinade over beef. Seal bag; refrigerate, and marinate 8 to 10 hours.
  • In medium bowl, mix bell peppers, onions, oil, cumin, coriander and salt; set aside.

Transfer steak to cutting board; tent with foil, and let stand 5 minutes.
  • Meanwhile, in grill pan, cook pepper and onion mixture 5 to 7 minutes, stirring occasionally, until vegetables are crisp-tender and browned.
  • Cut steak across grain at angle into thin slices. To serve, place beef and vegetables down center of warmed tortillas. Top with remaining ingredients.

FAJITA STEAK SALAD WITH CILANTRO-LIME VINAIGRETTE



Fajita Steak Salad with Cilantro-Lime Vinaigrette image

Two of the all-time greats-steak fajitas and steak salad-come together in an explosion of flavor. Top round steak (often labeled as London broil) is an inexpensive cut that holds up to a powerful marinade and high-intensity cooking while easily feeding a crowd. The cilantro-lime vinaigrette also pulls no punches, beautifully dressing the salad and perfectly coating charred peppers and onions. A little pepper jack cheese, some fresh avocado and a healthy sprinkle of tortilla strips make this salad one big party on a plate!

Provided by Food Network Kitchen

Time 1h40m

Yield 6 servings

Number Of Ingredients 16

2 tablespoons vegetable oil, plus more for the grill pan
2 tablespoons Worcestershire sauce
1 tablespoon chili powder
1 teaspoon dried oregano
1 teaspoon smoked paprika
Juice of 1 lemon
2 cloves garlic cloves, smashed
1 scallion, cut into 2-inch pieces
Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
2 pounds top round London broil steak
1/4 cup fresh cilantro leaves, finely chopped
2 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil
1 teaspoon ground cumin
Zest and juice of 2 limes
2 garlic cloves, grated
Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper

Steps:

  • For the steak: Set a large resealable plastic bag in a medium saucepan and pull the edges of the bag over the sides of the pan for easy access to the bag. Add the vegetable oil, Worcestershire sauce, chili powder, oregano, paprika, lemon juice, garlic, scallion, 1 teaspoon salt and 1 teaspoon pepper to the bag and whisk to combine. Add the London broil and seal the bag tightly. Remove the bag from the pan and use your hands to rotate the meat, coating thoroughly in the marinade. Lay the bag flat on a cutting board and marinate at room temperature for 1 hour, flipping the bag after 30 minutes. (The seasoned meat can also be stored in the refrigerator overnight. Let rest at room temperature for 20 minutes before cooking.)
  • Remove the steak from the bag and discard any stuck-on garlic cloves and scallion. Set a grill pan over high heat until just starting to smoke, about 3 minutes. (Or prepare a grill for high heat.) Lightly oil the pan. Place the steak in the center of the pan and grill until the bottom is nicely charred, about 5 minutes. Flip the steak and continue grilling until an insert-read thermometer inserted sideways into the center of the steak registers between 120 and 125 degrees F, 3 to 5 minutes more. Transfer the steak to the cutting board and rest for 10 minutes.
  • For the vinaigrette: While the steak rests, whisk the cilantro, olive oil, cumin, lime zest and juice, garlic, 1/2 teaspoon salt and 1/4 teaspoon pepper together in a large bowl. Pour half of the vinaigrette into a small bowl and set aside.
  • For the salad: Add the bell peppers and onions to the large bowl of vinaigrette and toss to thoroughly coat. Arrange the onions cut-side down and the peppers skin--side down on the same grill pan over high heat and grill until deeply charred, about 4 minutes. Transfer to the same cutting board as the steak.
  • Add the remaining vinaigrette back to the large bowl. Add grated cheese and salad greens and toss to combine. Arrange the salad mixture on a large serving platter. Top with the grilled peppers.
  • Cut the roots off the onion halves and slice the onions into thin wedges. Arrange on the salad. Thinly slice the rested steak against the grain and arrange in the center of the salad. Arrange the avocado slices around the edge of the platter, then sprinkle tortilla strips over the top of the salad.

Yield Makes 6 servings

Number Of Ingredients 11

2 large onions, peeled and cut lengthwise into 6 wedges, leaving root ends intact
2 1/2 tablespoons olive oil
2 1/2 teaspoons balsamic vinegar
1 1/2 teaspoons salt
1/4 cup fresh lime juice
2 lb skirt steak, halved crosswise
2 1/2 teaspoons coarsely ground black pepper
18 flour tortillas
1 cup fresh cilantro leaves
Accompaniment: tomatillo or tomato salsa; lime wedges
Special equipment: metal skewers or a grill basket

Steps:

  • Prepare grill for cooking.
  • Thread onions onto skewers (or put in grill basket), then brush with 1/2 tablespoon oil and season with salt and pepper. When fire is medium-hot (you can hold your hand 5 inches above rack for 3 to 4 seconds), grill onions, turning occasionally, until tender, 16 to 20 minutes. Transfer to a cutting board. When just cool enough to handle, cut onions into 1-inch pieces and toss with vinegar and 1/2 teaspoon salt.
  • While onions are grilling, stir together lime juice and remaining teaspoon salt and 2 tablespoons oil in a shallow dish, then add steak and marinate at room temperature, turning once, 10 minutes.
  • Pat steak dry, then rub with pepper. Grill steak on lightly oiled grill rack, turning once, 6 to 10 minutes total for medium-rare. Transfer to cutting board, then let stand 5 minutes before cutting diagonally into thin slices.
  • While steak is standing, toast tortillas directly on grill rack, turning once, until puffed slightly and browned in spots, about 1 minute total. Serve steak, onions, cilantro, and salsa all wrapped in tortillas.

  • STEAK MARINADE: Combine the ingredients for the marinade in a large shallow bowl. Give it a taste and check for seasonings, adjust to preference. Coat the steak with the marinade and let sit covered in the refrigerator for at least 2-4 hours and ideally overnight. Remove from the refrigerator 30 minute prior to cooking.
  • Set a large cast iron skillet or pan over high heat and let heat up for a couple of minutes. Add the steak to the pan and fry on each side for about 3-5 minutes or longer if you'd like it more done. Feel for desired firmness. The 3 minutes/side will yield a medium rare doneness. If the pan becomes too hot, reduce the heat to medium high. Remove the steak from the pan and allow to rest for several minutes tented with a piece of foil. Slice the meat against the grain into thin slices. I like to do so on an angle so the meat slices are tender and thin.
  • FAJITA VEGGIES: Add the remaining tablespoon of oil to the pan over high heat, add in the onions, poblano, and bell peppers. Let the veggies begin to sizzle and toss as necessary, cook for a total of 2-3 minutes or longer if you prefer them softer, season with a pinch of salt and pepper. [b]If your pan is small, cook the veggies in a few batches so they don't steam.[/b]
