Step 1
Heat 1 tbsp oil in a large skillet over medium-high until it shimmers, about 90 seconds.
Step 2
Add steak in a single layer, sprinkle with chili powder, cumin, salt, and pepper. Sear 2 minutes without moving—edges should brown.
Step 3
Flip and cook another 90 seconds until the center is medium-rare. Slide onto a plate.
Step 4
Add another 1 tbsp oil to the skillet. Toss in peppers and onion with a pinch of salt; cook 5 minutes until edges char and soften.
Step 5
Return steak and any juices to the skillet. Squeeze the lime over top and toss to coat, about 30 seconds.
Step 6
Warm tortillas in the skillet for 10 seconds per side. Serve fajitas with salsa, sour cream, and avocado.
