Instructions

  1. Step 1

    Slice the 1 lb beef sirloin into thin strips and toss with 2 tbsp fajita seasoning in a bowl.

  2. Step 2

    Heat a large skillet over high heat. Add the beef in a single layer and cook until browned, about 3-4 minutes per side. Remove from skillet.

  3. Step 3

    In the same skillet, add the 2 sliced bell peppers and 1 sliced onion. Cook over medium-high until tender-crisp, about 5-7 minutes.

  4. Step 4

    Return the beef to the skillet with the vegetables and stir to combine. Cook for 1-2 minutes until heated through.

  5. Step 5

    Warm the 8 flour tortillas in a dry skillet or microwave until soft and pliable.

  6. Step 6

    Serve the beef mixture with warm tortillas, 1 cup guacamole, 1 can refried beans, and 1 cup salsa on the side.
