LOVE ME SOME STEAK FAJITAS!
Especially those made with love and care….and homemade fajita seasoning!
This is one of those “everyone at the table will polish their plates” meal for the Chase family.
And I don’t make them often enough?!?!
There’s just something about fresh, sauteed peppers and onions with a homemade spice mix….it makes for such a delightful dinner!
Here’s a quick snapshot and how it goes…
Saute the peppers and onions with some GARLIC! đŸ˜‰
Bring up all the flavors with some homemade fajita seasoning.
Once the peppers and onions are done…
Saute the steak pieces in the same skillet, then toss the peppers and onions back in to bring together all the yummy fajita flavors.
Serve on tortilla (or over rice, or cauli-rice!) with favorite garnishes!
Enjoy!
P.S. Here’s the Keto version we recently shared – Keto Steak Fajitas!
