Instructions

  1. Step 1

    Slice the 1 lb steak into thin strips and season with salt and pepper. Slice the 2 bell peppers and 1 onion into strips.

  2. Step 2

    Heat 2 tbsp oil in a large skillet over high heat. Add the steak 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 sliced peppers and onion. Cook over medium-high until softened and charred at edges, about 5-7 minutes.

  4. Step 4

    Warm the 8 tortillas in a dry skillet or microwave. Heat the 1 can of refried beans in a small pot until hot, about 3 minutes.

  5. Step 5

    Serve the steak and vegetables on tortillas with refried beans and a dollop of the 0.5 cup sour cream. Add chopped tomatoes or salsa if you like.
