Keto Fajitas

Keto Fajitas are a flavorful, low-carb twist on the classic dish, featuring tender strips of marinated beef and vibrant bell peppers. This easy-to-make recipe is perfect for a quick weeknight dinner with a satisfying crunch and a burst of spices.

Ingredients

• Beef sirloin - 300 grams, thinly sliced
• Red bell pepper - 1 medium, sliced
• Green bell pepper - 1 medium, sliced
• Yellow bell pepper - 1 medium, sliced
• Onion - 1 medium, sliced
• Olive oil - 2 tablespoons
• Lime juice - 2 tablespoons
• Garlic powder - 1 teaspoon
• Cumin - 1 teaspoon
• Chili powder - 1 teaspoon
• Salt - 1/2 teaspoon
• Black pepper - 1/4 teaspoon
• Fresh cilantro - 2 tablespoons, chopped (for garnish)
• Sour cream - 100 grams (for serving)

Steps

1. In a bowl, combine the olive oil, lime juice, garlic powder, cumin, chili powder, salt, and black pepper to create a marinade.
2. Add the sliced beef sirloin to the marinade, coating it well. Let it marinate for at least 10 minutes while you prepare the vegetables.
3. In a large skillet over medium-high heat, add a tablespoon of olive oil. Once hot, add the sliced onion and bell peppers, sautéing for about 5-7 minutes until they are tender and slightly charred.
4. Remove the sautéed vegetables from the skillet and set aside. In the same skillet, add the marinated beef, cooking for about 5-7 minutes until browned and cooked through.
5. Return the sautéed vegetables to the skillet with the beef, stirring to combine. Cook for an additional 2-3 minutes to heat everything through.
6. Serve the Keto Fajitas hot, garnished with fresh cilantro and a dollop of sour cream.
