Ingredients
  

For the fajitas
  • 1 lb skirt steak or flank steak Skirt is thinner and cooks very fast; flank is meatier.
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil Or another high smoke point oil.
  • 1 piece bell pepper, sliced into strips Use any color or a mix.
  • 1 piece onion, sliced into rings or half moons
  • 1 tablespoon fajita seasoning Store-bought or homemade blend.
  • to taste Salt and pepper
  • Tortillas, warmed flour or corn As needed.
Toppings (optional)
  • salsa
  • guacamole
  • sour cream
  • chopped cilantro
  • lime wedges

Method
 

Preparation
  1. Preheat the Blackstone griddle on medium-high until the surface is very hot and shimmering.
  2. Pat the steak dry and toss with olive oil, fajita seasoning, and a pinch of salt and pepper. Let it rest on the counter for 10 to 20 minutes.
Cooking
  1. Place the steak on the hot griddle and leave it alone for 4 to 5 minutes to develop a good crust.
  2. Flip the steak and cook for another 4 to 5 minutes for medium-rare to medium.
  3. Remove the steak to a cutting board and let it rest for 5 to 7 minutes.
  4. While the steak rests, add the sliced bell pepper and onion to the same griddle. Sauté until tender and slightly charred, about 3 to 4 minutes.
  5. Warm tortillas on the griddle for 20 to 30 seconds per side until pliable and lightly toasted.
  6. Slice the steak thinly across the grain and assemble tortillas with steak, peppers, onions, and your favorite toppings.
