First, if you’re unfamiliar with steak fajitas, you’re missing out. Think sizzling strips of meat and veggies, all nestled in a warm tortilla and topped with your favorite toppings. Yum. And when it comes to the meat, flank steak is the way to go. Flank steak is a cut of beef that comes from the abdominal muscles of the cow. It’s a lean cut with some serious flavor, and when cooked right, it’s tender and juicy. It’s got just the right amount of chewiness, and when sliced against the grain, it’s perfect for those thin strips that make fajitas so dang tasty.
