Instructions
- In a large bowl, combine lime juice, cumin, chili powder, garlic powder, salt, and pepper to create a vibrant marinade.
- Add the sliced flank steak to the marinade. Ensure all pieces are well-coated and allow them to marinate for a minimum of 10 minutes. For a deeper flavor, marinate for up to 24 hours in the refrigerator.
- Heat olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat.
- Add the marinated steak to the skillet, cooking each side for 3-4 minutes or until it reaches your preferred level of doneness. Remove the steak from the skillet and set it aside.
- In the same skillet, add the sliced bell peppers and onion. Cook them until they are tender and slightly charred, which should take about 5-6 minutes.
- Return the cooked steak to the skillet and toss it with the peppers and onions, ensuring everything is well combined.
- Lay out the lettuce leaves and divide the steak mixture among them. Top each with sliced avocado, a dollop of sour cream, and a spoonful of salsa.
- Enjoy your mouthwatering, keto-friendly Steak Fajitas immediately for the best flavor and texture.
Tips
- For a spicier kick, add a diced jalapeno to the skillet with the bell peppers and onions.
- If you tolerate dairy, a sprinkle of shredded cheese can add an extra layer of flavor.
