How to Make Fajita Pepper Steak

  1. Heat 1 tablespoon of olive oil in a large skillet or wok over medium-high heat.
  2. Thinly slice 1 pound of bottom round beef into strips. In a bowl, toss the beef with 1 teaspoon of chili powder, 1/2 teaspoon of cumin, 1/4 teaspoon of paprika, 1/4 teaspoon of garlic powder, 1/4 teaspoon of onion powder, and salt and pepper to taste.
  3. Add the seasoned beef to the hot skillet and cook, stirring occasionally, until browned and tender (about 5-7 minutes).
  4. Add 1 cup of sliced bell peppers (any color) and 1/2 cup of sliced onions to the skillet. Stir-fry for 3-5 minutes, until crisp-tender.
  5. Serve the fajita pepper steak immediately over 2 cups of cooked brown rice. Garnish with fresh cilantro or green onions, if desired.
