Prep Time 14 minutes
Cook Time 7 minutes
Course Appetizer
Cuisine Mexican
Servings 16 Fajita halves

Ingredients
  

  • 1 pound porterhouse Steak
  • 1 small sweet onion
  • 2 Bell peppers seeded and sliced
  • 1 jalapeno pepper seeded and minced
  • 1 envelope Fajita seasoning
  • 2 tablespoon olive oil
  • 8 ripe Hass avocados
  • 1 lime juiced
  • ½ cup cilantro leaves chopped
  • ¼ cup Mexican shredded cheese

Instructions
 

  • Trim any fat around the steak. Slice steak against the grain into strips, then cut strips into 2 inch pieces. Sprinkle ½ Fajita seasoning over steak and 1 tablespoon olive oil. Toss to coat and set aside.
  • Meanwhile, slice up onion and bell peppers.
  • Heat 1 tablespoon of olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat, add in onions, bell peppers and jalapeno pepper, cook until starting to soften, about 3 to 4 minutes.
  • Turn heat to high, add in remaining fajita seasoning over vegetables and push vegetables to one side of pan. Now add in seasoned steak, cook for 4 to 5 minutes or until steak appears cooked to medium doneness. Toss all ingredients together.
  • Squeeze the juice of one lime over steak and vegetables, add in cilantro and stir to combine. Remove from heat.
  • Now, cut avocado’s in half and remove pit. Scoop out some avocado to create a deep hole, repeat with remaining avocados. Fill each avocado half with steak & peppers. Top with a sprinkle of shredded cheese and serve immediately.

Notes

What to do with scooped out avocado?
  • Chop and top each filled stuffed avocad
  • Prepare a mini guacamole dip to accompany raw veggies
  • Freeze it. Yup! Mash the avocado with lime juice, place into a freeze bag and squeeze out all the air. Freeze for up to 1 month.
