Fajitas!!!!! Just Google Carne Asada Flap Steak and tons of recipes comes up.
Don't ruin the dish w/ canned salsa. Make your own fresh pico de gallo. When cooking the steak if you add the onions and peppers, add cherry tomatoes. When they start cooking for a couple minutes, poke with a knife, and when they start getting soft, squash with the spatula. Adds an all new flavor as the juice complements well. Come up with that one by myself.
Carne asada burrito's from SoCal are my favorite, but never learned how to spice it like they do. Dude 3737 may be able to give us the rundown.

Thanks guys.
I marinated the steak in ACV and chopped garlic after rubbing it with chili powder, cumin, and cayenne.
Seared both sides, finished in the oven on high heat.
Had it with tortillas and ranchero sauce.
Good, but too tart from the ACV.
I'll try your recipes soon.

I make a Trisha Yearwood chuck roast recipe that uses ACV. Calls for 1/4c per 5lb roast. It's a little strong. I cut back. ACV is mighty powerful in cooking.
I haven't made fajitas in a long time and can't remember my recipe. I'll do it this weekend if time allows and give you guys the rundown. With pics and all.

Marinating it in Red Wine vinnegar, olive oil, salt pepper and crushed garlic works well. Dont overdo the vinnegar.
