The first time I made these beef fajitas, my family couldn’t get enough. The next time I had to make a double batch so everyone had enough. This is a favorite evening meal for me because it fixes up quick. It would be a good one for entertaining, too—the avocados add a nice dash of color.

Fantastic Beef Fajitas
1 lb. beef top sirloin steak or flank steak, trimmed and cut against the grain into ¼ inch strips
Marinade: 3 Tbsp. canola oil
2 Tbsp. lemon juice
1 tsp. dried oregano
1 garlic clove, minced

¼ tsp. pepper
Fajitas: ½ medium onion, sliced
1 medium sweet red pepper, sliced into thin strips

In a large resealable bag, combine marinade ingredients; add beef. Seal and refrigerate for 3-6 hours or overnight, turning several times.
Discard marinade. In a skillet, sauté onion and pepper in 1 tablespoon oil until crisp tender; remove from pan. Add remaining oil and sauté meat until no longer pink, about 4 minutes. Add vegetables to pan and heat through.
To serve, place a spoonful of meat/vegetable mixture on a warmed tortilla and top with avocado, salsa and sour cream. Roll tortilla around filling. 4-6 servings
