How to make Zesty Sheet Pan Steak Fajitas
- Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C) and line a large baking sheet with parchment paper for easier cleanup.
- Slice the 1.5 lbs skirt steak or flank steak against the grain into 1/4-inch thick strips. Cut the 3 large bell peppers (any color) and 1 large red onion into thin strips, about the same size as the steak.
- In a large bowl, combine the sliced steak, bell peppers, and red onion. Drizzle with 3 tbsp olive oil and sprinkle with 2 tbsp fajita seasoning. Toss everything together thoroughly with your hands to ensure all ingredients are evenly coated.
- Spread the seasoned steak and vegetables in a single layer on the prepared baking sheet. Ensure there is enough space so the ingredients can roast rather than steam; use two baking sheets if necessary.
- Roast for 15-20 minutes, flipping the mixture halfway through the cooking time, until the steak is cooked to your desired doneness (medium-rare to medium is typically best for fajitas) and the vegetables are tender-crisp with slight charring.
- Remove the baking sheet from the oven. Squeeze the juice from 1 medium lime directly over the hot fajita mixture to brighten the flavors.
- Let the steak rest on the sheet pan for 5 minutes before serving. This allows the juices to redistribute, keeping the meat tender.
- Garnish with freshly chopped 0.25 cup cilantro. Serve the Zesty Sheet Pan Steak Fajitas immediately with 8 warm tortillas, salsa, and sour cream or Greek yogurt on the side for build-your-own fajitas.
