Fajita Steak Kabobs

Servings 4 Serves

Ingredients
  

  • 2/3 cup lime juice
  • 3 cloves garlic pressed
  • 1/4 teaspoon dried oregano
  • 1/4 teaspoon ground cumin
  • 1/4 teaspoon chili powder
  • 1/4 teaspoon sea salt
  • 1/4 teaspoon ground red pepper
  • 3/4 pound beef flank steak trimmed of all visible fat and cut in 1-inch pieces
  • 1 large red bell pepper de-seeded, de-ribbed and cut into 1-inch pieces
  • 1 large yellow bell pepper de-seeded, de-ribbed and cut into 1-inch pieces
  • 1 large green bell pepper de-seeded, de-ribbed and cut into 1-inch pieces
  • 1 large red onion cut into 1-inch pieces
  • 4 12-inch bamboo skewers OR metal
  • olive oil

Instructions
 

  • DO-AHEAD TIP: Marinate kabobs for 2 hours (see recipe). If using bamboo skewers, soak them in water for at least 30 minutes to prevent burning on the grill.
  • In a small bowl, combine first 7 ingredients (lime juice through ground red pepper).
  • Thread steak, bell peppers and onion pieces alternately on skewers. Place kabobs in a shallow dish and pour lime juice mixture on top; cover and refrigerate for 2 hours.
  • Preheat outdoor or indoor grill to MEDIUM-HIGH; lightly coat grill grate with a little olive oil. Place skewers on grill, cover with grill lid and cook for 5 to 7 minutes per side, turning occasionally, until they reach desired level of doneness.
