Method

  1. 1

    Prepare the guacamole: combine mashed avocados, diced jalapeño (seeds removed), 1/3 cup diced red onion, 1/3 cup chopped cilantro, minced garlic, lime juice, and salt and pepper to taste in a bowl; mix until smooth and refrigerate until ready to serve.

  2. 2

    Make the honey habanero sour cream: whisk together 0.5 cup light sour cream, 0.5 tbsp haberno hot sauce, and 1‑2 tbsp honey until smooth; refrigerate until ready to serve.

  3. 3

    Pat the ribeye steaks dry, coat them with avocado oil, and season generously on all sides with fajita rub.

  4. 4

    In a large bowl, toss the sliced yellow, orange, red, and green bell peppers and sliced red onion with avocado oil and fajita rub until evenly coated.

  5. 5

    Grill the peppers and onions over medium‑high heat for 6‑8 minutes, stirring occasionally, until nicely charred; transfer to a tray to catch steak drippings.

  6. 6

    Grill the steaks over medium‑high heat for about 2.5‑3.5 minutes per side, or until the internal temperature reaches approximately 130°F for medium‑rare.

  7. 7

    Remove the steaks from the grill and let them rest for 5‑10 minutes, then thinly slice against the grain.

  8. 8

    Warm the tortillas, then assemble each taco with sliced steak, grilled peppers and onions, a spoonful of guacamole, a drizzle of honey habanero sour cream, and top with Cotija cheese and chopped cilantro; serve immediately.
