Ingredients

• 2 beef sirloin steaks (1 inch thick)
• 2 bell peppers (any color)
• 1 large onion
• 4 tablespoons olive oil
• Salt and pepper to taste
• 1 tablespoon paprika
• 1 teaspoon cayenne pepper
• 1 teaspoon ground cumin
• 1 teaspoon garlic powder

• 1 ripe avocado
• 1/4 cup sour cream

Instructions

1. Prepare the steaks by seasoning them with salt, pepper, paprika, cayenne pepper, ground cumin, and garlic powder. Let them marinate for at least 30 minutes.
2. Slice the bell peppers and onion into thin strips.
3. Heat a large cast iron skillet over high heat. Add 2 tablespoons of olive oil and sear the steaks for 3 4 minutes per side, then remove them from the skillet and let them rest.
4. In the same skillet, add the remaining 2 tablespoons of olive oil, bell peppers, and onion. Cook until they are charred and tender, about 5 7 minutes.
5. While the vegetables cook, blend the avocado, sour cream, lime juice, salt, and pepper in a blender or food processor to create the smoky avocado crema.
6. Slice the steaks into thin strips and return them to the skillet for an additional 2 minutes to warm through.
7. Warm the flour tortillas on a grill or in a pan for about 30 seconds on each side.
8. Assemble the fajitas by placing a portion of steak, vegetables, and smoky avocado crema in each tortilla.
