Start grilling the steak
Cook the steak until it reaches a target temperature of 90℉ and the bottom develops grill marks, about 8 minutes. June will notify you when it’s time to flip the steak.
Cook the vegetables
While the steak is cooking, heat a large skillet over high heat. Add the sliced bell peppers, onions, salt and pepper. Cook, stirring frequently, until the vegetables begin to char but are still crisp, about 5 minutes. Transfer the bell peppers and onions to a serving platter or a clean June Pan and tent with foil to keep warm.

Flip the steak and continue grilling
When notified to flip the steak, open the door. With protected hands slide the shelf and grill slightly out of the June Oven. Using tongs, flip the steak over. Slide the shelf and grill into the June Oven and close the door. Cook the steak until it reaches an internal temperature of 130℉ for medium, about 6 more minutes. If you prefer your steak more cooked, follow on-screen instructions to continue cooking to 135℉.
Rest the steak
With protected hands, unplug the thermometer from the jack. Using tongs, remove the steak from the June Oven and place on a chopping board to rest. Let the steak rest 5 minutes.

Warm the tortillas
While the steak rests, wrap the tortillas in foil and place them on top of the hot grill and close the door. The residual heat in the oven will warm the tortillas while the steak rests.

Serve
Place the steak on a serving platter or June Pan with the vegetables. Pour any juices from the steak over the platter or June Pan. Remove the tortillas from the June Oven and unwrap them carefully to avoid escaping steam. To each tortilla, add vegetables and steak to form fajitas. Serve hot and squeeze the remaining lime half over the fajitas to taste.
