Beef Fajitas
12 oz. boneless beef round steak
1/2 cup Italian salad dressing
1/2 cup salsa
2 Tbl. lime juice
1 tsp. Worcestershire sauce
4 (10 inch) flour tortillas
1 medium onion, thinly sliced
1 medium green pepper, thinly sliced
3/4 cup chopped tomato
1/4 cup shredded cheddar or Monterey Jack cheese
1/4 cup salsa
Trim fat from beef. Use partially frozen beef for easier slicing. Thinly slice across the grain (about 1/4 inch thick) into bite size pieces.
Put beef strips in a plastic bag(Ziploc type). Pour dressing, salsa, lime juice and Worcestershire sauce in bag, shut and mix well. Marinate in fridge for 6-8 hours, turn bag occasionally.
To cook, preheat oven to 350 degrees F.
Chop all the vegetables and put aside, keeping each separate.
Layer tortillas between tin foil and place in pre-heated oven for 10 minutes to soften.
While they are warming, preheat Wok or frying pan to medium-hot. You can add a little oil or add a couple tablespoons of Italian dressing and stir-fry in that. Add the onion and stir-fry for about 1 1/2 minutes. Add peppers and stir-fry another 1 1/2 minutes, until vegetables are crisp-tender. Remove from Wok.
Add 1/2 the beef strips, undrained, and stir-fry 2-3 minutes until cooked, drain well in colander. Repeat with rest of beef. Return beef and vegetables to pan and add tomatoes, heat through.
To serve, spread 1/4 mixture on a tortilla, top with cheese and remaining salsa. Roll up tortillas. Makes 4 servings.
