Mix the lime juice, oil, garlic, cumin, chili powder, salt, and black pepper.
Place the skirt steak in the marinade and rest in the refrigerator for 1 hour.
Cut the peppers and onion into thick strips.
Heat a cast-iron pan over high heat for 4 minutes.
Sear the meat for 3 minutes on each side and rest for 8 minutes.
Saute the peppers and onions in the same pan for 6 minutes, until the edges color.
Slice the meat across the grain and serve with warm tortillas.
💡 Tip: Slicing the steak across the grain keeps fajitas juicy and easy to chew.
🍽️ Serving suggestion: Serve family-style with warm flour tortillas, and add pico de gallo, guacamole, and lime wedges if desired.
