Ingredients

Instructions

  1. Heat olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add sliced steak, bell pepper, and onion.
  2. Sprinkle with fajita seasoning. Cook, stirring frequently, until steak is browned and vegetables are tender-crisp (about 7-10 minutes).
  3. Remove steak and veggies from skillet; set aside. Wipe skillet clean if needed.
  4. Place one tortilla in the skillet over medium heat. Sprinkle half with 1/4 cup cheese, then a portion of the steak mixture.
  5. Add another 1/4 cup cheese over the steak mixture. Fold the empty half of the tortilla over the filling.
  6. Cook for 2-3 minutes per side, until golden brown and cheese is melted and bubbly. Repeat with remaining tortillas.
  7. Remove from skillet, slice into wedges, and serve immediately with salsa, guacamole, and sour cream.
Pro tip: Don't overcrowd the pan when cooking the steak and veggies for a better sear.
