Serves 4-6

Flank Steak normally benefits from a lot of marinating - that is unless you cut it thin and cook it fast like this. If you feel like skipping the steak, go ahead. It's still so delicious with only the vegetables.

Ingredients

  • 3 teaspoon Olive Oil
  • 1 medium red onion, sliced thin
  • 1 red pepper sliced into thin strips
  • 1 pound flank, thinly sliced
  • 3/4 cup whole corn kernels - if frozen, cook first according to directions
  • 1 jalapeno chopped fine with seeds
  • 1 teaspoon ground cumin
  • 1 teaspoon chili powder

Steps

  1. Heat oil in large heavy skillet over medium heat.
  2. Add red pepper and onion and cook until tender - about 10 minutes.
  3. Remove to plate.
  4. Add flank steak to skillet and cook until the pink is gone - about 1 minute.
  5. Add the corn, jalapeno, cumin and chili powder.
  6. Saute quickly for a few seconds.
  7. Add the onions and pepper back in.
  8. Stir until heated through and remove.
  9. Serve with warm tortillas, sour cream, salsa and lime wedges to squeeze on top.
