Description

Juicy steak, caramelized peppers and onions, and crispy fries tucked into a warm tortilla and toasted until cheesy and irresistible.


Ingredients

  • 1 pound flank steak (skirt steak works too)
  • 1 tablespoon olive oil
  • 2 teaspoons salt
  • 1 teaspoon black pepper
  • 1 teaspoon garlic powder
  • 1 teaspoon onion powder
  • 1 red bell pepper, sliced
  • 1 green bell pepper, sliced
  • 1 large onion, sliced
  • 1 cup shredded cheddar cheese
  • 1 cup shredded mozzarella cheese
  • 4 large flour tortillas
  • 2 cups frozen French fries
  • 1 tablespoon butter
  • 1 tablespoon sour cream
  • 1 tablespoon fresh cilantro, chopped (optional)


Instructions

  1. Preheat the oven to 425°F (220°C) and bake the fries for 20–25 minutes until crisp.
  2. Pat the flank steak dry and rub with olive oil, salt, pepper, garlic powder, and onion powder. Let sit for 10 minutes.
  3. Heat a large skillet over medium-high and sear the steak for 3–4 minutes per side.
  4. Transfer steak to a cutting board and rest for 5–10 minutes before slicing thinly against the grain.
  5. Melt butter in the same skillet and sauté onions and peppers for 6–10 minutes until softened.
  6. Heat tortillas in a dry skillet or microwave until pliable.
  7. Assemble each tortilla with sliced steak, crispy fries, sautéed peppers and onions, cheddar, and mozzarella.
  8. Roll tightly and place seam-side down in the skillet or on a baking sheet.
  9. Heat for 5–10 minutes until crispy and cheese is melted.
  10. Top with sour cream and cilantro before serving.

Notes

Serve with chipotle mayo, queso, or salsa for dipping. For best texture, reheat in a skillet or oven.
