These zestful skirt steak fajitas are a vibrant addition to your high-protein repertoire, offering a perfect balance of smoky beef and bright citrus notes. By marinating the meat overnight in a blend of fresh lime juice, coriander, and a hint of jalapeño, the naturally tough fibres of the skirt steak are broken down, resulting in an exceptionally tender and flavourful finish. It is a simple yet effective way to bring authentic, punchy flavours into your home kitchen with minimal effort.
Ideal for a casual weekend dinner or a nutritious midweek feast, this versatile dish is best enjoyed family-style. Once grilled to medium-rare perfection and rested, the steak is thinly sliced and ready to be tucked into warm flour tortillas. Serve with plenty of soured cream, sliced avocado, and a fresh tomato salsa for a wholesome, protein-packed meal that everyone will love.

Ingredients for Skirt Steak Fajitas
2 skirt steaks (about 675g each)
120ml fresh lime juice (about 4 limes)
1/2 cup chopped fresh coriander
2 teaspoons minced jalapeño pepper
2 teaspoons finely minced garlic
2 tablespoons olive oil
1 teaspoon ground cumin
Salt and freshly ground black pepper, to taste
How to make Skirt Steak Fajitas
Cut the steak crosswise into 2 to 4 pieces and place in a bowl. In a separate bowl, combine the remaining ingredients; pour over the steak, turning it to coat well. Marinate overnight, covered, in the refrigerator, turning once or twice. Remove from the refrigerator 30 minutes before cooking.
Preheat the grill. Remove the steak from the marinade, scrape off any bits and place on a baking sheet. Grill 4 inches from heat source for 3 minutes per side for medium-rare meat. Let rest 10 to 15 minutes. Slice the meat thinly. (For easy eating, the steak strips should be 1/4- to 1/2-inch thick.) To assemble fajitas, click here .
