Ingredients

  • 2 pound flank steak
  • 1 pound shrimp peeled and deveined
  • 2 1/2 teaspoons kosher salt
  • 1 teaspoon ground black pepper
  • 1 1/2 tablespoons of chili powder
  • 1 1/2 teaspoons of garlic powder
  • 1 1/2 teaspoons of onion powder
  • 1 teaspoon of ground cumin
  • 1 1/2 teaspoons of smoked paprika
  • 2 tablespoons of olive oil
  • 1 tablespoon of freshly squeezed lime juice
  • 1/2 tablespoon of soy sauce
  • 1 yellow bell pepper
  • 1 red bell pepper
  • 1 orange bell pepper
  • 1 small red onion
  • limes for garnish
  • fresh cilantro for garnish
  • tortillas warmed

Instructions

  • Preheat oven to 450 degree. In a small bowl combine salt, pepper, chili powder, garlic powder, onion powder, cumin and paprika.
  • In a large plastic storage baggie, combine 1 tablespoon of olive oil, lime juice, soy sauce and 2/3 of spice mixture. Add steak to plastic storage baggie and turn to coat, let steak marinate at room temperature while prepping shrimp, onions and bell peppers.
  • In a small bowl, combine shrimp with 1/2 tablespoon olive oil and remaining 1/3 of spice mixture and set aside. Slice peppers and onions into 1/4 inch slices. Add peppers and onions to sheet pan, drizzle with 1/2 tablespoon of olive oil and season with 1/2 teaspoon kosher salt and 1/4 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper, tossing to coat. Move bell peppers and onions to outer edges of sheet pan and place steak in the middle.
  • Cook at 450 degrees for 12-15 minutes. Remove flank steak from oven and arrange uncooked shrimp over onions and peppers then broil on high for additional 3-4 minutes, just until shrimp is cooked through. Use a meat thermometer to check steak for doneness. About 140 for medium rare to 150 for medium.
  • IMPORTANT - for juicy and tender steak, let rest at least 10 minutes and cut against the grain. Sprinkle with fresh cilantro and a squeeze of fresh lime juice before serving.
  • Tortillas can be wrapped in a foil packet and heated in the oven while steak is resting. Serve fajitas in warm tortillas with avocado and/or sour cream.
