1. STEAK MARINADE: Combine the ingredients for the marinade in a large shallow bowl. Give it a taste and check for seasonings, adjust to preference. Coat the steak with the marinade and let sit covered in the refrigerator for at least 2-4 hours and ideally overnight. Remove from the refrigerator 30 minute prior to cooking.
2. Set a large cast iron skillet or pan over high heat and let heat up for a couple of minutes. Add the steak to the pan and fry on each side for about 3-5 minutes or longer if you'd like it more done. Feel for desired firmness. The 3 minutes/side will yield a medium rare doneness. If the pan becomes too hot, reduce the heat to medium high. Remove the steak from the pan and allow to rest for several minutes tented with a piece of foil. Slice the meat against the grain into thin slices. I like to do so on an angle so the meat slices are tender and thin.
3. FAJITA VEGGIES: Add the remaining tablespoon of oil to the pan over high heat, add in the onions, poblano, and bell peppers. Let the veggies begin to sizzle and toss as necessary, cook for a total of 2-3 minutes or longer if you prefer them softer, season with a pinch of salt and pepper. [b]If your pan is small, cook the veggies in a few batches so they don't steam.[/b]
4. ASSEMBLY: Serve them in tortillas or on rice bowls topped with your favorite toppings!

1. In a large resealable plastic bag (or a large mixing bowl) add all the ingredients except the coarse sea salt and black pepper and toss to combine.
2. Cover and marinate in the fridge for 2 hours up to 8 hours.
3. Remove the meat from the marinade, transfer to a clean large surface or cutting board and pat dry with paper towels. Generously season both sides of the steak with coarse sea salt and black pepper.
4. In a large skillet over medium-high heat, add 1 tablespoon of cooking oil. Add the steak to the skillet and cook on each side for about 3-5 minutes, depending on how thick the steak is and how "done" you want it to be. I recommend using a meat thermometer for this step if you have one.

1. Roll 4 limes back-and-forth on the counter, pressing firmly, to make juicing easier. Cut and juice the limes. Peal and crush the garlic cloves, giving them a quick rough chop and put with the lime juice. Slice a medium onion into rings about 3/8 inch thick. Cut the skirt steak in half and place into a large zip-loc bag. Pour the lime juice and oil into the bag. Add onions and garlic to both sides of the bag and between the skirt steak. Seal the bag and mush things around so that the ingredients are fairly evenly distributed throughout. Put the bag into a glass dish to prevent leaks and turn the bag over every few hours. Best if marinated over night - two days. Let the fajita meat come to temperature for 30 minutes before cooking.
2. Slice the bell peppers and place into a bowl large enough to accommodate them and the onions from the marinade, but not the crushed garlic. Pour a little oil over the onions and peppers and toss to coat.
3. Preheat the grill to high. Remove the skirt steak from the fajita marinade and dry with paper towels or they won't brown on the grill. Rub a little oil on both sides and salt and pepper liberally. Grill the steak to your liking. If it is not as brown as you like, put it in a very hot iron skillet to brown. Let the meat rest 10-15 minutes before slicing.
4. While the fajitas rest, preheat an iron skillet until very hot. Add the onions in a single layer and let cook until browned and charred. Turn over with tongs and cook the other side. Remove to a serving plate and add the next round of vegetables, making sure not to crowd the pan. Continue until all of the vegetables are done. This process will produce a little bit of smoke.
