Notes
Slicing the Flank Steak: To make slicing easier, freeze the steak for 15 minutes before cutting. Then cut against the grain in ¼ inch thick slices.
Cut Evenly: Try to cut both your steak and your vegetables into relatively uniform pieces for more even cooking.
Dinnertime Time Saver: To save time before dinner you can slice your meat and veggies the night before (or that morning), season and refrigerate. When it’s time to cook dinner, just put on the sheet pan and pop in the oven.
Warm the Tortillas: You can warm your tortillas while cooking the filling by wrapping them in aluminum foil and placing in the oven for 10-15 minutes. Alternatively, cover the stack with a dampened paper towel and microwave at 30 second bursts until warmed through.
