Tools You’ll Need Before You Start Small Bowl Whisk Spatula Medium Cast Iron Pan How to Cook Grilled Bavette Steak Fajitas with Grilled Tortillas When it comes to making can’t-miss, mouthwatering fajitas, the right protein makes all the difference. Luckily, our grilled bavette steak fajitas with grilled tortillas have a unique secret up their sleeve: Omaha Steaks Bavette Steaks. Flavorful, versatile, and featuring a unique, loosely textured consistency, this cut is one butcher’s best-kept secret that you don’t want to miss out on! Learn more about the bavette steak, from its other name to how to cut it, in our Butcher’s Guide: What is a Bavette Steak? 1. Mix Up a Fajita Rub Fiesta This first step is as quick and simple to complete as it is important and flavor-setting to this recipe. To create this earthy and warm rub, simply combine all your ingredients in a small-sized bowl and whisk until well incorporated. 2. Grill Up Steak à la Perfection It may have a fancy name, but hand-selected, expertly cut, 28-day-aged Omaha Steaks Bavette Steak couldn’t be easier to prepare. To get started, first thaw your bavette steaks either overnight or using the quick-thaw method and pat them dry on all sides with a paper towel. Preheat your grill to 500 degrees F using direct heat and then clean and oil the grill grates. Next, liberally season all over with that deliciously rich and peppery fajita dry rub you prepared. Don’t skimp on this important step; remember, more seasoning more flavor. Then let the seasoned steak come to room temperature, which should take about half an hour. When your steaks are ready, grill them for 5 minutes on one side, then flip and continue to grill for another 4 minutes. Remove them from the grill for medium-rare doneness perfection and set them aside to rest for 8 minutes. Not sure what medium-rare looks like? Omaha Steaks doneness guide has you covered! 3. Get Your Veggies Ready Make the most out of your downtime while the steaks are resting and put a medium cast iron pan over the heat on the grill. Add your olive oil, onions, bell peppers, garlic, and a pinch of kosher salt and ground black pepper and then continuously sauté for 3 minutes, or until the bell peppers and onions are fork-tender. Next, add your salsa (medium or spicy, the choice is yours!) to the onion and bell pepper mixture and sauté for an additional 1 minute, until well-incorporated. Then season to taste with kosher salt and ground black pepper, if needed, and remove the cast iron pan from the grill and set aside. Finally, toss the whole jalapeño peppers with grapeseed oil and char over direct heat on all sides for about 90 seconds to 2 minutes on each side. Don’t worry, we didn’t forget the lime garnish! Grill sliced limes over direct heat, flesh-side down, for about 2 to 3 minutes, or until charred, and remove the cast iron pan from the grill. 4. Bring it All Together! Now your perfectly grilled, well-rested steak is ready! Slice it thinly on the bias (aka diagonally) then fan out the slices and serve directly in the cast iron pan on top of your sizzling veggies and charred jalapeños and limes. This dish is best served family-style, so put the whole pan on the table after you’ve grilled the flour tortillas for 10 seconds on each side and brushed them lightly with olive oil. Chef’s Tip: Kick this sizzling meal up a notch by serving it with shredded cheese, sour cream, and sliced avocado!
