Baked Flank Steak Fajita (Firinda Et Kavurmasi)


Baked Flank Stake Fajita
Baked Flank Steak Fajita is one of my favorite dishes. It is very easy to make and very tasty to eat with especially homemade tortilla and guacamole. Even though my son is not a good meat eater, he eats my fajita with tortilla since it gets very tender and tasty making it in the oven. In addition, it goes with a bowl of rice and bulgur. My recipe is a mix of Mexican and Turkish fajitas. I do not marinate my stake and add only black pepper and some red pepper flakes, not cumin or the other mexican spices. Basically its appearance looks like Mexican and its tastes Turkish fajita.
This recipe makes 2-4 servings.

Ingredients:
2 pounds Flank Stake










1 big green, red and pepper (you can also add 1 yellow pepper)
3 tbsp olive oil
Black pepper
Salt
Red pepper flakes
Turmeric (optional)

Instructions:

1- Preheat oven for 400 F.

2- Cut the stake lengthwise into two pieces first, then, cut these pieces as shown in the picture 1.

3- Put the meat in a 9"x13" glass pan and add olive oil, enough black pepper, pepper flakes, turmeric, and salt. Mix them together and put in the hot oven.

4- While the meat is cooking, chop your onion and peppers as shown in the picture 2.

5- Put aside your veggie until your meat cooks for 20-25 minutes.

6- Then, season your veggie with a little salt and pepper and add them to your meat and let them cook together until meat comes to the level you like. Do not cook the meat too much not to get it very dry, so taste it very often while it cooks.

7- After it cooks throughly, let it sit for a few minutes and wrap with a tortilla or serve with rice or bulgur.

Enjoy it!
