Ingredients

1 ½ pounds skirt steak or flank steak
3 cloves garlic sliced
2 tablespoons orange juice
1 ½ teaspoon chili powder
1 teaspoon smoked paprika
1 teaspoon cumin
½ teaspoon dry oregano
½ teaspoon dry coriander
2 tablespoons avocado oil or other neutral flavored oil
1 ½ teaspoon salt divided
¼ teaspoon black pepper
1 yellow or orange bell pepper sliced
1 vidalia onion sliced
Fajita sized tortillas

Optional Toppings

1 Avocado sliced
Shredded cheddar cheese blend
Sour cream
Salsa
Guacamole

Instructions

In a bowl combine garlic, orange juice, chili powder, paprika, cumin, oregano, coriander, 1 teaspoon salt and oil. Rub mixture all over steak and set in a bowl for 30 minutes.
While steak is marinating, season onions and peppers with salt and pepper and preheat grill to medium/high heat.
Place marinated steak on grill and place onions and peppers on grill in either a grill basket or grill mat (to avoid onions and peppers falling into grill grates). Cook the steak just 4 minutes on one side and then flip over and cook about 4 minutes on the other side. Remove from grill and allow to rest while onions and peppers continue to cook, about 5 more minutes. Place fajitas on grill just for one minute to warm.
After steak has rested 5 to 10 minutes, slice in thin slices against the grain on a diagonal.
Arrange steak on a platter with onions, peppers and other toppings and assemble in tortillas.
