Marinating Fajita steak in pineapple juice not only tenderizes the steak, but also gives it a sweet and tropical flavor.

Tropical Steak Fajitas

Whisk together pineapple juice, chili powder, garlic powder, onion salt, cayenne pepper, cumin, and black pepper in a shallow dish. Place steak in marinade; cover and allow to marinate at room temperature for 30 minutes.

Heat olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Remove steak from marinade; discarding remaining marinade. Cook steak, about 7 to 8 minutes for medium-rare (130 degrees), or until desired doneness. Remove from skillet, tent with foil and allow to rest for 5 minutes.

Add fajita vegetables to skillet. Cook until crisp-tender about 5 to 7 minutes. Remove from heat; stir in chopped pineapple.

To serve, cut steak across the grain into thin slices. Serve corn tortillas filled with sauteed vegetables and pineapple, top with sliced steak. Garnish with fresh cilantro and serve with tropical pico de gallo, if desired.
