Steak fajitas are a quick and easy meal that’s perfect for busy nights. To make them even tastier, you can add lots of delicious toppings!

Skirt steak is the ideal cut for fajitas because it’s incredibly tender when cooked rare or medium rare. However, if you can’t find it or don’t want to use it, flank steak is also a great choice.

How to Grill

Steak is a Tex-Mex staple and it’s the perfect choice for fajitas. It’s simple to grill and can be enjoyed by the entire family!

To get the most out of your steak, marinate it for up to eight hours in a tasty marinade. Traditional fajita marinades use lime juice to add acidity and the flavors of grilled beef.

You can also add a few other ingredients to the marinade, such as beer or soy sauce. However, it’s best to stick with the basic straight lime juice fajita marinade.

Once the steak has marinated, grill it over direct heat, about 450 degrees. Cook for a few minutes on each side. When the meat is cooked to your liking, move it over to indirect heat and continue cooking until the internal temperature reaches 135 to 140 degrees Fahrenheit.

Marinade

A simple, zesty fajita marinade that adds big flavor to steak & veggies for the perfect sizzlin’ summer dinner! Finished with seared veggies, tortillas & a handful of toppings – these grilled steak fajitas are the ultimate easy meal!

Traditionally, steak fajitas are made with a thin, tender marinated beef steak that is stuffed into a flour tortilla and topped with sauteed onions and bell peppers. The combination of all those ingredients is a total hit!

The steak can be marinated in the marinade for as little as 2 hours, but ideally, it should be left to soak up all that delicious juice over the course of at least 4 hours.

The meat should then be grilled to medium rare, which is usually how we like to cook our fajitas. The steak should then be sliced against the grain and served with the warm tortillas, grilled vegetables and a good helping of the fajita toppings – sour cream, pico de gallo and guacamole for example.

Toppings

Fajitas are a classic Mexican dish, and they’re a great way to make an easy dinner. They’re served with grilled strips of steak and vegetables, tortillas, and toppings like salsa, guacamole and sour cream.

The toppings are what make the fajita so satisfying! You can also serve shredded lettuce on top for a fresh, healthy addition to the fajita.

Toppings can include anything from grilled onions and bell peppers to avocado crema, sour cream and pico de gallo. You can even add pickled jalapenos and cilantro leaves for extra flavor.

When grilling steak, remember to slice the meat thinly across the grain for juicy tenderness. This will ensure that you’ll get the best results.

Seasonings

When grilling steak for fajitas, you will need to season the meat with various spices. The right seasonings will help the meat to stay tender and juicy when grilled.

Steak Fajitas are a popular Tex-Mex dish that is often topped with sauteed onions, bell peppers and salsa. These fajitas are delicious and easy to make.

The key to making them taste the best is using the right cut of beef. Skirt steak and flank steak are great options as they absorb marinades well, cook quickly and when sliced thinly against the grain, taste tender and juicy.

To prepare the meat for fajitas, mix the spices and seasoning in a bowl. Rub the steak and other meats with the mixture before grilling them.
