 * 1-1/2 pounds very lean skirt or bottom-round Steak, cut 1/4-inch thick and trimmed of visible fat
 * 1 lime
 * 4 large garlic cloves, pressed through a garlic press
 * 1 to 2 TSP pequin quebrado or crushed red pepper flakes
 * 2 TSP vegetable oil
 * 1/4 cup brandy

 * Salsa, chopped onions, chopped tomatoes, chopped fresh cilantro, sour cream,& guacamole, for serving with the fajitas, if desired

Directions

 * 1) Cut the Steak into 4 to 6 equal-size rectangles. Pound the Steak pieces to flatten them as thin as possible.
 * 2) Cut the lime in half and squeeze the juice over both sides of each piece of Steak.
 * 3) Stack the steaks on a plate and let stand for about 30 minutes. Preheat the oven to 250 degrees F.
 * 4) Place a large, well-seasoned, cash-iron skillet over high heat until very hot (it should smoke).
 * 5) At the same time, stack the tortillas, wrap in foil, and place in the oven along with 4 to 6 dinner plates.
 * 6) Add the oil to the skillet and quickly sear the meat on both sides. Add the brandy to the hot skillet.
 * 7) Flame the meat by touching the brandy with a lighted match and let the flames burn down.
 * 8) (Keep a large piece of foil or a skillet lid nearby in case the flames rise too high. Just cover them until they subside.)
 * 9) Top the warm tortillas with lettuce and pieces of Steak.
 * 10) Garnish with salsa, onions, tomatoes, cilantro, sour cream, and guacamole, if desired.
 * 11) To serve,roll each tortilla around the mixture.
