1red chilli, finely sliced
1red pepper, finely sliced
1yellow pepper, finely sliced
1red onion, finely sliced
2 tsppaprika

3 tbspolive oil
A good pinch ofsea salt and freshly ground black pepper
A large handful offresh coriander, roughly chopped
2-3tortillas per person
150mlsour cream

Method

Preheat the grill to its highest setting.

In a large roasting tin, mix together the steak, chilli, peppers, onion, spices, olive oil, salt and pepper. Place under a blisteringly hot grill for 4 minutes.

Remove the roasting tin from the grill, give everything a good mix, then return to the grill for a further 3-4 minutes, until the steak is just cooked through.

Leave the steak to rest for 3 minutes, then scatter over the chopped coriander. Pile into tortillas, warmed through in foil at the bottom of the oven, and serve the sour cream alongside, with lime juice and grated cheese if you like.

Note: The steak in this recipe is cooked through. For rare steak, grill for 6 minutes in total, stirring halfway.
