Method

Preparation of Tortilla Shell

  1. 1

    Prepare the Tortilla Shells

    Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Place the flour tortillas on a baking sheet and bake for about 5-7 minutes or until they are slightly crispy. Remove from the oven and let them cool slightly.

Cooking the Protein

  1. 2

    Grill the Steak or Chicken

    Season the steak or chicken breast with salt and pepper. Preheat a grill or skillet over medium-high heat. Cook the meat for about 6-8 minutes on each side or until it reaches the desired doneness. Once cooked, remove from heat and let it rest for a few minutes before slicing it into strips.

Sautéing Vegetables

  1. 3

    Sauté Bell Peppers and Onions

    In a skillet, heat a tablespoon of olive oil over medium heat. Add the sliced bell peppers and onions. Sauté for about 5-7 minutes until the vegetables are soft and slightly caramelized. Remove from heat.

Assembling the Salad

  1. 4

    Assemble the Fajita Salad

    In each tortilla shell, layer the salad greens, followed by the grilled steak or chicken, sautéed peppers and onions, pico de gallo, sour cream, shredded cheddar cheese, and guacamole. Serve immediately.
