2 large tomatoes, seeded and chopped
1/2 cup diced red onion
1/4 cup lime juice
1 jalapeno pepper, seeded and minced
3 tablespoons minced fresh cilantro
2 teaspoons ground cumin, divided
3/4 teaspoon salt, divided
1 beef flank steak (about 1-1/2 pounds)
1 large onion, halved and sliced
6 whole wheat tortillas (8 inches), warmed
Optional: Sliced avocado and lime wedges
1. For salsa, place first 5 ingredients in a small bowl; stir in 1 teaspoon cumin and 1/4 teaspoon salt. Let stand until serving.
2. Preheat air fryer to 400°. Sprinkle steak with the remaining cumin and salt. Place on greased tray in air-fryer basket. Cook until meat reaches desired doneness (for medium-rare, a thermometer should read 135°; medium, 140°; medium-well, 145°), 6 to 8 minutes per side. Remove from basket and let stand 5 minutes.
3. Meanwhile, place onion on tray in air-fryer basket. Cook until crisp-tender, 2 to 3 minutes, stirring once. Slice steak thinly across the grain; serve in tortillas with onion and salsa. If desired, serve with avocado and lime wedges.
Zesty salsa and tender strips of meat make these air-fryer steak fajitas extra special.
