Steak Fajita Grilled Cheese
Author: Karina
A beautiful fajita spice mix rubbed all over beef fillet steaks seared to your liking and sandwiched with char-grilled peppers, onions, creamy avocado, sour cream and warm melty cheese.
Ingredients
USMetric
- ▢2 tablespoons olive oil
- ▢2 Tablespoons Worcestershire sauce
- ▢1 whole lime juiced
- ▢2 cloves garlic crushed
- ▢1 teaspoon ground cumin
- ▢½-1 teaspoon crushed red chili flakes (adjust to your tastes)
- ▢1 pinch salt
- ▢1 teaspoon brown sugar
- ▢16 ounces beef fillet steak, cut into 4 pieces Rump, Eye Fillet, or Scotch Fillet
- ▢1 medium brown onion sliced
- ▢½ large red bell pepper deseeded and sliced
- ▢½ large yellow bell pepper deseeded and sliced
- ▢½ large green bell pepper deseeded and sliced
- ▢8 slices of day-old sourdough bread
- ▢1 whole ripe avocado sliced
- ▢8 slices Mozzarella cheese
- ▢¼ cup salsa Dip
- ▢½ cup Greek yogurt/sour cream
- ▢Fresh cilantro leaves
Instructions
- In a large shallow dish, whisk together the olive oil, Worcestershire, lime juice, garlic, cumin, chili/pepper flakes, salt and sugar until combined. Pour half of the marinade over the beef fillets, turning them to coat evenly. Add the capsicums/peppers with the onion to the remaining marinade and coat evenly. Cook immediately OR marinade for 1-2 hours in the refrigerator (or over night) for a deeper flavour.
- Heat a pan (cast iron) or heavy skillet over medium-high heat and drizzle in 2 teaspoons oil. Add the capsicums/peppers and onion and fry for a few minutes, until they’re cooked but still crunchy and vibrant in colour and have nice chargrilled marks on them. Remove to a warm plate and set aside.
- In the same pan over high heat, add a little extra oil (to prevent sticking), and fry the meat in batches until cooked to your liking. Remove and allow to rest on a cutting board for 5 minutes, and then slice thinly.
- Preheat grill/sandwich press, and prepare sandwiches with the capsicums/peppers and onions, steak slices, Greek yoghurt/sour cream, avocado slices, cheese, and coriander/cilantro leaves. Place them into the grill/press and cook until warm and cheese has melted through.
- Serve with limes, extra Greek yogurt/sour cream and salsa!
Notes
For extra gooey melted cheese cut mozzarella slices THICK. The thicker the cheese slice the more cheesy melted goodness!
