Ingredients
  • 1 lb sirloin steaks
  • 4-6 flour or whole wheat tortillas
  • Optional toppings: salsa, cheese, corn*, cilantro, and lime wedges
  • MARINADE:
  • ¼ cup lime juice
  • ⅓ cup water
  • 2 Tbsp olive oil
  • 4 garlic cloves (4 tsp), crushed
  • 2 tsp soy sauce
  • 1 tsp salt
  • ½ tsp liquid smoke
  • ½ tsp cayenne pepper
  • ¼ tsp black pepper
  • VEGETABLES:
  • 1 red bell pepper, sliced
  • 1 green bell pepper, sliced
  • 1 medium onion, sliced thin
  • 1 8-oz package sliced mushrooms
  • 1 Tbsp canola or olive oil
  • VEGETABLE SAUCE:
  • 2 Tbsp water
  • 1 tsp soy sauce
  • ½ tsp lime juice
  • Salt and pepper, to taste
  • 1 Tbsp olive oil
Instructions
  1. In a large ziploc bag, combine steaks with marinade ingredients. Close and jiggle bag well to combine seasonings. Refrigerate for at least 2 hours or overnight.
  2. Adjust your oven rack to be about 6 inches from the top. Set your oven to broil.
  3. Lightly spray broiler pan with cooking spray and place steaks on top.
  4. Place steaks in oven and broil about 4 minutes, then flip steaks and broil an additional 4 minutes. (This will yield medium-rare steaks. Keep them in for another minute or so per side if you prefer them to be more cooked)
  5. Remove steaks from oven, transfer to a plate, and keep warm.
  6. In a small bowl, combine all vegetable sauce ingredients. Set aside.
  7. In a large fry pan, heat canola or olive oil over medium-high heat. Add vegetables and saute until lightly browned.
  8. Remove from heat and toss with vegetable sauce.
  9. Slice steaks into thin strips and add to vegetable mixture.
  10. Serve with tortillas and toppings of your choice.
