Trim any excess fat from the flank steak and slice it into thin strips against the grain.
In a small bowl, whisk together olive oil, lime juice, cumin, chili powder, paprika, garlic powder, salt, and black pepper to create the marinade.
Pour the marinade into a plastic zip-top bag or a shallow dish. Add the steak strips and toss to coat. Marinate in the refrigerator for at least 15 minutes, or up to 2 hours for extra flavor.
While the steak marinates, thinly slice the red, green, and yellow bell peppers, as well as the yellow onion.
Heat a large skillet or cast-iron pan over medium-high heat. Add 1 tablespoon of olive oil and sauté the peppers and onion until softened and slightly charred, about 5-7 minutes. Remove the vegetables from the skillet and set aside.
In the same skillet, add another 1 tablespoon of olive oil. Add the marinated steak strips in a single layer, cooking for 2-3 minutes per side or until browned and cooked to your desired level of doneness.
Return the sautéed vegetables to the skillet with the steak and toss everything together to combine. Cook for an additional 1-2 minutes to meld the flavors.
Warm the corn tortillas in a dry skillet or directly over a gas flame until pliable.
Assemble the fajitas by layering the steak and vegetable mixture onto a warm tortilla. Top with sliced avocado, chopped fresh cilantro, and optional salsa.
Serve immediately and enjoy!
