This tasty main dish is as quick and easy to assemble as tacos. Marinating the meat overnight makes it very tender. We like the hearty and flavorful steak slices. I serve the fajitas with Spanish rice, refried beans and a gelatin dessert. -Pamela Pogue, Quitman, Texas

Prep: 10 min. + marinating Grill: 20 min.

Yield: 6 Servings

10 20 30

Ingredients

1 beef flank steak (1-1/2 pounds)
1 large onion, cut into wedges
1 medium green pepper, julienned
1 can (4 ounces) chopped green chilies
1/2 cup lemon juice
1/2 cup cider vinegar
1/2 cup vegetable oil
4 garlic cloves, minced
1 tablespoon Worcestershire sauce
1 teaspoon dried oregano
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/2 teaspoon pepper
12 flour tortillas (6 inches), warmed
1 medium California Avocado, peeled and sliced, optional
Sour cream, optional

Directions

In a large resealable plastic bag, add beef. In another large resealable plastic bad, add the onion and green pepper.
In a small large bowl combine the chilies, lemon juice, vinegar, oil, garlic, Worcestershire sauce, oregano, salt and pepper. Pour 1-1/2 cups over meat. Pour remaining marinade over vegetables. Cover and refrigerate overnight.
Drain meat and vegetables, discarding marinade. Grill steak, covered, over medium-hot heat for 10 minutes on each side or until meat reaches desired doneness (for medium-rare, a meat thermometer should read 145°; medium, 160°; well-done, 170°).
Meanwhile, cut two pieces of heavy-duty foil into 18-in. x 12-in. rectangles. Wrap tortillas in one piece and vegetables in the other; seal foil tightly. Grill, covered, over indirect heat for 5-7 minutes, turning occasionally.
Cut steak into 1/8-in. slices across the grain; place on tortillas. Top with vegetables and roll up. Serve with avocado and sour cream if desired. Yield: 6 servings.
