Sheet pan steak fajitas are a quick and flavorful Tex-Mex meal made with tender slices of steak, roasted bell peppers, and onions all cooked on one pan. With bold spices and minimal cleanup, it’s perfect for busy weeknights.

Ingredients

  • 1 1/2 lbs flank or skirt steak, thinly sliced
  • 1 red bell pepper, sliced
  • 1 yellow bell pepper, sliced
  • 1 green bell pepper, sliced
  • 1 large red onion, sliced
  • 3 tbsp olive oil
  • 2 tbsp lime juice
  • 3 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1 1/2 tsp chili powder
  • 1 tsp ground cumin
  • 1 tsp smoked paprika
  • 1/2 tsp onion powder
  • Salt, to taste
  • Black pepper, to taste
  • Fresh cilantro, chopped (optional, for garnish)
  • Flour or corn tortillas, for serving

Instructions

  1. Preheat oven to 425°F (220°C) and line a large sheet pan with parchment paper or foil.
  2. In a large bowl, whisk together olive oil, lime juice, garlic, chili powder, cumin, paprika, onion powder, salt, and pepper.
  3. Add sliced steak, bell peppers, and onion to the bowl. Toss well to coat evenly with the marinade.
  4. Spread everything in a single layer on the prepared sheet pan.
  5. Roast for 15–18 minutes, or until the steak is cooked to your liking and the vegetables are tender and slightly charred.
  6. Optional: Broil for the last 2 minutes for added caramelization.
  7. Remove from oven and let rest for a few minutes. Garnish with chopped cilantro if desired.
  8. Serve with warm tortillas and favorite toppings like salsa, guacamole, or sour cream.

Notes

  • Slice steak against the grain for tenderness.
  • Don’t overcrowd the pan to ensure proper roasting.
  • Prep ahead by marinating up to 8 hours in advance.
  • Use a meat thermometer to avoid overcooking steak—medium rare is about 135°F (57°C).
