Steak Fajita Tacos

Thaw a Mexican marinated steak the night before. If you forget you can always freezer cut it into strips.

Breakfast was Pina Colada Overnight Oats

Lunch was Dal Style Lentils & Chicken

Pat the steak dry. Notice the direction of the striations of the mean. We will want to cut across those to keep it tender.
A kinda thick slice of onion, a handful of pepper slices right from the freezer, and a clove of garlic – or two if small.
The last of the cherry tomatoes are getting a bit sad. Even though they are shriveled they will plump and burst when seared with corn for a side dish.
Medium high plus heat, you want it fairly hot, and get some good color on the steak.
Once you flip the steak add the onions and peppers to the same pan.
In a second small pan heat so oil and add the cherry tomatoes, watch how they plump up.
Add some frozen corn to the pan with the tomatoes.
Season with salt, pepper, cumin, coriander.
Char some corn tortillas.
Slice the steak against the grain. Nice char, pink in the middle.
Load the tortillas with steak and the peppers and onions.
And a drizzle of the home made chipotle crema.

I have always cooked, I was that person who could make a meal from an empty fridge. I have lived alone and with large and small families, I have cooked for camps on wood stoves, and in professional kitchens. I have lived and worked all over the west from Montana, to Seattle to Arizona to San Diego. I have traveled, maybe not 'all over the world', yet, and have collected tastes recipes and techniques everywhere, and every one I meet.
