Ingredients

  • 1 pound Flank Steak cut into thin strips
  • 2 envelopes Fajita Seasoning Mix
  • 1 bag Tortilla Chips
  • 2 cups shredded Cheddar Cheese or Mexican Blend Cheese
  • 1 tablespoon Vegetable Oil
  • 1 - 2 medium Onions sliced thin
  • 1 - 2 Green Bell Pepper sliced thin
  • 1 cup shredded Iceberg Lettuce to serve
  • 1 cup Pico de Gallo store bought or homemade, of choice (See Box Below for Links to Recipes), to serve
  • 1 cup Sour Cream to serve
  • 1 cup Guacamole store bought or homemade, of choice (See Box Below for Links to Recipes)
  • 1 cup Pickled Jalapeño Slices store bought or homemade, of choice

Instructions

  • Place cut flank steak in a bowl.
  • Add 1 envelope fajita seasoning. Stir and toss to mix and cover steak well with seasoning.
  • Grill or sauté steak or chicken until done to your liking (See Steak Chart Below this Recipe). Set aside. (May be done in advance. Store in a tightly sealed container, in the refrigerator, until ready to use.)
  • Pour oil into a large skillet. Place skillet over medium-high heat.
  • When oil is hot and shimmering, add onions and peppers. Sauté 2 to 3 minutes, or until onions are just starting to get tender and fragrant (Do not overcook - onions and peppers will finish cooking in the over later). Set aside. (May be done in advance. Store in a tightly sealed container, in the refrigerator, until ready to use.)
  • Preheat oven to 350°F.
  • Cover a baking sheet with aluminum foil.
  • Arrange tortilla chips, in a single layer or small mound, on baking sheet.
  • Top chips with cooked flank steak.
  • Sprinkle with cheese.
  • Arrange prepared onion and bell pepper slices over cheese.
  • Sprinkle with remaining fajita seasoning, to taste (You do not need to use the entire envelope, a little goes a long way).
  • Place in preheated oven. Cook for 20 - 30 minutes, just until cheese has melted to your liking.
  • Remove from oven. Serve straight from baking sheet or, very carefully, use a large spatula or pizza peel, to move nachos to a serving platter.
  • Toss lettuce over chips.
  • Serve with pico de gallo, sour cream, guacamole and jalapeño slices in individual serving bowls or dolloped and scattered over top or around chips.
