Ingredients:
For the Marinade:
1 lb flank or skirt steak, thinly sliced
2 cloves garlic, minced
1 tsp chili powder
1 tsp cumin
1 tsp paprika
Juice of 1 lime
2 tbsp olive oil
Salt and pepper to taste
For the Fajitas:
1 red & green bell pepper, thinly sliced
1 onion, thinly sliced
4 low-carb or whole wheat tortillas
Optional toppings: salsa, low-fat sour cream, cilantro, and avocado slices
Instructions:
In a bowl, combine all the marinade ingredients and mix well. Add the sliced steak, ensuring it’s evenly coated in the marinade. Let it marinate in the refrigerator for at least 30 minutes.
Preheat your air fryer to 400°F (200°C) for about 5 minutes.
Place the marinated steak in the air fryer basket in a single layer. Cook for 5-7 minutes, flipping once halfway through, until the steak reaches your desired level of doneness.
While the steak is cooking, heat a non-stick skillet over medium-high heat and sauté the bell peppers and onions until they are tender-crisp about 5-7 minutes.
Warm the tortillas in the air fryer for about 1-2 minutes, per the air fryer’s instructions. Assemble your fajitas by placing the cooked steak and sautéed vegetables on a tortilla. Add your preferred toppings, roll it up, and enjoy!
