Recipe Tips:

  • If your steak is thick place it between two pieces of plastic wrap and pounds it out using a kitchen mallet or rolling pin.
  • Make sure your pan is smoking hot! I use cast iron.
  • Serve this with a side of guacamole, salsa, and sour cream.
  • Always cut the roll-ups against the grain, which ensures a tender bite every time

Can I grill these?

Absolutely! In the summertime, I usually grill these to perfection on a hot grill. Just make sure to saute your veggies before rolling.

How to store leftovers

Store in an airtight container in the refrigerator for 3-4 days. To reheat, I slice the roll-ups against the grain and add a little butter to a skillet, heat until warm.

How do I know when my steak is done?

Skirt steak or any thinly cut steak will cook fast. I like mine medium rare!

Rare: 120 F degrees (will come up to 125 F degrees)

Medium Rare: 130 F degrees (will come up to 135 F degrees)

Medium: 140 F degrees (will come up to 145 F degrees)

Medium Well: 145 F degrees (will come up to 150 F degrees)

Well Done: 155 F degrees (will come up to 160 F degrees)

Notes

Skirt steak, flank steak, or even thin sirloin steak will work. You just want to make sure it’s about 1/4 of an inch thick. Use a meat mallet to pound it down if it’s too thick.

These steak fajita roll-ups can also be grilled.
