Ingredients
  

  • 2 tablespoons red wine vinegar
  • 1 Tablespoons lime juice
  • ¼ teaspoon paprika
  • ¼ teaspoon salt
  • ¼ ¼ teaspoon black pepper
  • 1 teaspoon chili powder
  • ½ teaspoon cumin
  • 1 teaspoon garlic powder
  • 1 ½ pounds steak choose the cut you’d like – in the slow cooker anything goes
  • 3 bell peppers sliced
  • 1 medium onion sliced
  • flour tortillas
  • sour cream salsa, guacamole, black beans and rice for serving

Instructions
 

  • Make a paste with the vinegar, lime juice and all of the seasonings. If it is to dry to spread, add a few drops of water until it is spreadable.
  • Spread the seasoning on the steak and place the steak in the slow cooker. Add a few slices of onion on top.
  • Allow the slow cooker to cook on high for 4 hours.
  • There are a few ways to do the veggies. You can toss them in the last hour of cooking time. Do not toss them in at the beginning or they will be mushy.
  • I prefer to add some minced garlic and olive oil and a bit of the fajita seasoning to a skillet on the stove and toss the veggies in over high heat until sizzling loudly and showing signs of some black.
  • Serve with flour tortillas, mexican rice, black beans, guacamole, sour cream and salsa.

  1. Oh yes, I am ready to make these fajitas. The bonus is I get to freeze the leftover beef and then make super quick meals with it during the week too.
