Another recipe on your journey to the ultimate Cinco de Mayo celebration-steak fajitas.

3 tbls chopped cilantro
2 tbls olive oil
3 tsp Worchestershire sauce
1 tsp oregano
1 tsp crushed red pepper flakes
1 tsp cumin
1 tsp coriander
2 tsp salt
1 tsp ground black pepper
1 red bell pepper, cored and thinly sliced
1 green bell pepper, cored and thinly sliced
1 yellow bell pepper, cored and thinly sliced
1 onion- thinly sliced
1 tbl crushed garlic
lime wedges
flour or wheat tortillas
optional, sour cream, pico de gallo, lettuce, tomatoes, etc

Mix Steak and 1st 11 ingrediants together. Marinate overnight in a zip lock bag in the fridge. No time to marinate? Mix together and get ready to cook.
