Steak Fajitas Marinade
- Remove tendons from the steak if necessary and cut it into thin strips. Mix the ingredients for the marinade in a bowl, add the steak strips and rub them with the marinade. Cover the steak and place it in the refrigerator for at least 30 minutes or longer.
Steak Fajitas
- Wash the peppers, peel the onion, and cut both into thin strips. Heat a skillet and fry the steak strips, for about 3 minutes over medium-high heat while turning them regularly. Remove them from the skillet and set aside briefly. Add the oil and vegetable strips to the skillet and sauté over medium-high to high heat for five minutes, stirring occasionally. Season with salt and the spice mix and sauté for another three to five minutes.
Guacamole
- Meanwhile, mash the avocado and mix with the lime juice. Slice the jalapeño into thin strips, add one-third to the avocado cream, and two-thirds to the vegetable pan.
Finish to Serve
- Return the steak strips to the pan and sauté for about two minutes over medium heat. Meanwhile, warm the tortillas in a non-stick pan or in the microwave. Cut the lime into wedges, wash the cilantro and pluck the leaves.
