Delicious!

What makes this recipe healthy?  It contains no oils.  The bold flavors of lime juice, soy sauce and vegetables/herbs give it great taste.   Purchase more steak than you will use for one night’s dinner because the leftovers make great steak fajitas or quesadillas for lunch.  Hint – when marinating with lime juice, do not marinade the steak over an hour or it will start to cook.
