Fajita Taco Ingredients

Method

Fajita Taco Preparation

  1. 1

    Cook the Protein

    Heat 1 tablespoon of olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add the chicken or beef, season with salt, pepper, and fajita seasoning. Cook until fully cooked (about 6-8 minutes for chicken, 4-6 minutes for beef). Remove from skillet and let rest.

  2. 2

    Sauté the Vegetables

    In the same skillet, add another tablespoon of olive oil. Add sliced bell peppers and onion. Sauté until softened, about 5-7 minutes.

  3. 3

    Slice Protein

    Once the protein has rested, slice it into thin strips.

  4. 4

    Assemble the Tacos

    Warm the flour tortillas in a dry skillet or microwave. On each tortilla, layer the sliced protein, sautéed vegetables, shredded cheese, lettuce, diced tomato, and a dollop of sour cream. Squeeze fresh lime juice on top.

  5. 5

    Serve

    Serve immediately and enjoy your delicious fajita tacos!
