Zesty Steak Fajitas

Prep time: 30 min

Serves: 6

Ingredients:

• 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

How to make it:

Time: 30 minutes

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.
