Fajitas Ingredients

Method

Fajitas Preparation

  1. 1

    Marinate the Meat

    In a large bowl, combine sliced beef or chicken with olive oil, minced garlic, cumin, chili powder, salt, and black pepper. Mix well and let it marinate for at least 30 minutes.

  2. 2

    Cook the Meat

    Heat a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add the marinated meat and cook until it’s browned and cooked through, about 5-7 minutes. Remove from the skillet and set aside.

  3. 3

    Cook the Vegetables

    In the same skillet, add sliced bell peppers and onion. Sauté for about 5 minutes until they are tender-crisp.

  4. 4

    Combine and Serve

    Return the cooked meat to the skillet with the vegetables. Mix well and cook for an additional 2 minutes. Serve hot in warm flour tortillas with sour cream, guacamole, and pico de gallo on the side.
