Summer Grilling Series

Welcome back to the summer grilling series where today we’re talking fajitas! Fajitas used to be something I only ordered in a restaurant, until one day I thought, why don’t I make these at home? Turns out it’s pretty easy.

We just filled our freezer once again with 1/4 cow. I used to buy one every year, and then we lost our source. But recently, I was at a friends house with my kids, and she had another friend there, who just happens to raise beef.

I was beyond excited! I really missed having beef in the freezer.

What to do with Flank Steak

The first time we bought 1/4 cow, I had received a couple of different cuts of meat that I really didn’t know how to prepare. Flank steak was one of them. I quickly learned, it’s fantastic for fajitas, stir fry, or we love these flank steak pinwheels, which look super fancy, but are really easy.

It’s best marinated, which is why it’s perfect for this grilled flank steak fajitas recipe. It only needs 30 minutes of time in the marinade, but if you can make it the night before, it’s totally worth it and has much more flavor.

You can even make this up ahead of time and freeze it. I love my freezer, can you tell? 🙂 The only thing better than a freezer full of meat, is one full of meals ready to go.

We recently lost our power, not long after filling my freezer with not only this beef, but 12 whole chickens. My husband drove an hour and a half to purchase a small generator to keep the freezer going. As you can imagine, they were sold out everywhere closer.

We ended up being without power for a day and a half. Many people went several days without it. The things we take for granted!

Grilled Flank Steak Fajitas

Whether you are making these for your next gathering or your family, I think you’ll love this easy steak fajitas recipe. It’s well seasoned, the soy sauce tenderizes it beautifully, and there’s a hint of citrus flavor, it’s delicious!

Serve it on warmed or grilled tortialls with sautéed bell peppers & onions, lime wedges, guacamole, homemade salsa, or pico de gallo.

Ingredients

  • 1/3 cup low sodium soy sauce
  • juice from 2 limes
  • juice from 2 lemons
  • 1/3 cup olive oil
  • 3 cloves garlic, pressed or minced
  • 2 tbsp brown sugar
  • 1 tsp cumin
  • 1 tsp chile powder
  • 2 lbs flank steak

  • lime wedges
  • tortilla chips

Instructions

  • Combine soy sauce, lime juice, lemon juice, olive oil, garlic, sugar, cumin and chile powder in a small bowl, mix well.
  • Place steak in a shallow pan or zip lock bag, and pour marinade over top. Marinate at least 30 minutes, but 1 day is ideal.
  • Preheat grill to 400-500 degrees. Place steak on the grill, and close the lid. Cook for 6-10 minutes, then turn and cook for 6-10 minutes more. 
  • Remove from the grill, and let rest 10 minutes before slicing against the grain.

Notes

Freezer instructions:
Place steak in a ziplock bag. Combine marinade ingredients and pour over top of steak. Seal the bag and push the marinade around so it covers the steak well. Lay flat in the freezer. Before using, thaw in the fridge.
