Prep: 30 min; Marinate: 8 hr; Broil: 16 min
Fajita Marinade (see recipe)
_ 1/2 pounds boneless beef sirloin steaks 1 1/2 inches thick
__ flour tortillas (8 to 10 inches in diameter)
_ tablespoons vegetable oil
_ large onions, sliced
_ medium green bell peppers or red, cut into 1/4 inch strips
_ (8-ounce) jar picante sauce (1 cup)
_ cup shredded cheddar cheese or Monterey Jack (4 ounces)
_ 1/2 cups guacamole (see recipe) or prepared guacamole
___ cup sour cream
1. Make Fajita Marinade in small bowl.
2. Remove fat from beef. Pierce beef with fork in several places. Place beef in resealable plastic food-storage bag or shallow glass or plastic dish. Pour marinade over beef; turn beef to coat with marinade. Cover and refrigerate at least 8 hours but no longer than 24 hours, turning beef occasionally.
3. Heat oven to 325°.
4. Wrap tortillas in aluminum foil. Heat in oven about 15 minutes or until warm. Remove tortillas from oven; keep wrapped.
5. Set oven control to broil.
6. Remove beef from marinade; reserve marinade. Place beef on rack in broiler pan. (For easy cleanup, line broiler pan with aluminum foil before placing beef on rack.) Broil beef with top about 3 inches from heat about 8 minutes or until brown. Turn; brush beef with marinade. Broil 7 to 8 minutes longer for medium-rare to medium. (Also see Recommended Meat Doneness.) Discard any remaining marinade.
7. While beef is broiling, heat oil in 10-inch skillet over medium-high heat. Cook onions and bell peppers in oil 6 to 8 minutes, stirring frequently, until crisp-tender.
8. Cut beef across grain into very thin slices. For each fajita, place a few slices of beef, some of the onion mixture, 1 heaping tablespoonful each picante sauce and cheese, about 2 tablespoons Guacamole and 1 tablespoon sour cream on center of tortilla. Fold 1 end of tortilla up about 1 inch over filling; fold right and left sides over folded end, overlapping. Fold remaining end down.
