A zesty tomato and jalapeno relish and tender strips of steak make these traditional fajitas extra special. The recipe is shared by Rebecca B. of Salt Lake City, Utah.

Preparation time: 30 minutes


You Will Need
2 medium tomatoes, seeded and diced
1/2 cup diced red onion
1/4 cup lime juice
3 tablespoons minced fresh cilantro
1 jalapeno pepper, seeded and chopped
2 teaspoons ground cumin
1/2 teaspoon salt
1 beef flank steak (about 1 1/2 pounds)
1 large onion, halved and sliced
1 tablespoon vegetable oil
6 flour tortillas (6 inches), warmed
Canned black beans and guacamole


What to Do
1. In a bowl, combine the first seven ingredients. Cover and refrigerate.

2. Broil or grill steak over medium-high heat for 6-8 minutes on each side or until meat reaches desired doneness (for medium-rare, a meat thermometer should read 145°F; medium, 160°F; well-done, 170°F).

3. Meanwhile, in a skillet, sauté onion in oil until crisp-tender. Slice steak into thin strips across the grain; place on tortillas. Top with onion and the reserved tomato relish. Serve with black beans and guacamole.

Serves 6

Editor's Note: When cutting or seeding hot peppers, use rubber or plastic gloves to protect your hands. Avoid touching your face.
