Gave it a quick sear, a nice rest, and then sliced on the bias. We served with avocado, grilled onions, and Pico de Gallo with refried beans and Mexican Rice on the side. Simple, filling and absolutely delicious! Thank you so much for recipe. We make it at least once every couple of weeks. Thanks again! Read More.

I made this exactly how the recipe stated I was a little concerned that the meat would be too tough but it was good tenderness I just bought pre packaged fajita meat. Pretty good flavor not sure if I would make this again. I didn't want it for leftovers the next day but it was alright. I was really trying to copy Chili's restaurant's fajitas it was pretty close but I feel like it needed some different flavors.
Reviews: Most Helpful. This recipe has an excellent marinade for the beef. It turned out full of flavor. The only thing I added were big onion slices and red pepper when I was cooking the meat. Omitted the salsa and cheese because the meat and veggies had so much flavor I didn't think this fajitas needed anything else. Rating: 4 stars. Good basic lime fajita marinade. If you don't a like lime, garlic, and cilantro combination then you shouldn't make it.
Instead go spend a buck on a fajita marinade packet at the grocery store that will taste like taco seasoning! The only reason I took a star away from the recipe is that if your going to use a good cut of beef such as New York Steak, marinate the steak before slicing, grill the steak to your personal preference, and then slice thinly on the bias and against the grain. I made this exactly as instructed, it was just delicious! Served with sauteed strips of red and green bell pepper and onions.
Cook for 2—3 minutes, or until the beans and beef are hot. Stir in the chilli and season with salt and pepper. Cook for a few seconds more. Remove from the heat, scatter over the coriander and add a squeeze of lime. Toss lightly. Divide the tortillas between four warmed plates. Top with shredded lettuce then pile the beef mixture on top. Spoon the yoghurt over each tortilla and garnish with the coriander.
Serve immediately, with extra lime wedges for squeezing. By Justine Pattison. See more minute healthy meals recipes By Rachel Phipps. This allows the bacon grease to really soak into the cast iron. This was SO good!! Only thing I did different was we grilled the meat and with the veggies we grilled them up in a grill pan.
It was fantastic! My 11yr old who is a picky eater came back for seconds. Thank you for the best fajitas, way better then any restaurant. I had some cooked shrimp that I tossed into the marinade separately from the steak…This was amazing..
Even better heated up on sheet pan in hot oven the next day.. Sharing this with everyone! I saw where you told someone to not marinate for longer than 14 hours; but before reading this, I mixed my marinade last night at p. By the way, I like spicy, so I used 1 tablespoon of red pepper flakes and increased the paprika to 2 tsp. I also had sliced the flank steak into strips before marinating. Thank you for a wonderful recipe!
Love this recipe, one of the things my picky husand will eat! I cut up the steak before hand and use mushrooms instead of onions being the hubby hates onions. I marinate the veggies in with the steak for at least 6 hours. We like it spicy also so we use more chilli pepper and red pepper flakes! Yes, chipotle powder would be a good substitute but keep in mind that it may make the fajitas a little spicier!
Definately the BEST fajitas ever! My husband and I love them! I do a small twist though, I add pinapple chunks and also shrimp. The other twist is that I prefer to broil my food, so I put it all even the peppers and onions on a sheet pan in the broiler for about 8 min.
Flipping the meat half way through … and like I said, this recipie is so delish! Thank you for taking time to post this recipe. I appreciate you and your effort. I tried this recipe tonight. I will not make this again because I keep only the best tasting recipes and this one is just average. Not worth the time and the effort. Some of the store bought fajita rubs are better in my opinion. These truly were the best Fajitas I have ever had. Thank you for sharing this delicious recipe.
Awesome recipe! My family loved it and we will use it again. The only problem was the steak was tough. Not sure how to make it tender! Has anyone used this in the crock pot?
Thanks for your help. Made this tonight and it was good, should have marinated it longer. It was my first time making a fajita. I used tenderloin steak. It was sooooooo good! Husband really enjoyed it! Would definitely make again! Thank you for the recipe! Is there a reason it calls for no sugar added pineapple juice? I cannot find that. Will it be too sweet if I use regular? This has been my favorite fajita marinade for awhile! I recently started Whole30 and had every aspiration to make some homemade worcestershire so we could have these fajitas.
Got lazy and decided to use coconut aminos instead. Just thought I would share for other Whole30ers out there. These truly are the BEST fajitas!! Love them! Great recipe! Will be adding this to my favorites! Thank you for sharing. I thought the ingredient list looked flavorful so off i went and bought a flank steak which I have never cooked before and made this tonite. My 2 sons devoured 2 pounds of meat in less than 10 minutes.
This was awesome. This is a keeper. You can bet they will be in the regular rotation at our house. Quick question. The recipe you posted calls for marinating the meat longer than two hours. What am I missing? Trust the recipe. Easy and fun for the whole family. Loved it so much, we will have it again for supper really soon. So easy and so delish! I made these beef fajitas for dinner tonight, and the flavor was incredible.
Wow, these were so authentic tasting. Due to limited resources of our current crisis, I subbed crushed pineapple for the amount of juice and it was still so delicious. I cooked my veggies in the cast iron skillet on top of the grill and the steak right next to the pan.
I even grilled the corn tortillas. Thanks, I will definitely post up next time. I cut the steak before cooking it! Can I still pan sear it? Hi — It is May 20 — — it appears that the written recipe is missing — it looks like there was a link [recipe] on top of the nutritional information but there is no recipe… could you fix this? Sorry about that, Rachel! Made this last night but i used a diced habanero instead of a poblano.
My fiance and brother were in food heaven. I also loved it. Fantastic recipe thank you. Thank you for taking the time to come back and comment, Shannon! This marinade is a game changer! It is worth the time it took to marinade, steak was tender and delicious. This is a Keeper! So happy to hear you enjoyed them, Jo! Pineapple Juice makes all the difference. Thank you for sharing it. So happy to hear that, Krystal! I concur, that pineapple juice really makes it! Easy hack was to substitute 2 Tblspoons of Taco seasoning for the the dry seasonings chili, cumin paprika etc… and then add salt pepper along with all other ingredients!!
Easy peasy! I made cilantro lime rice and guacamole to complete the meal. I also used NY stip steaks and sliced them then before marinating. I want to know if I can marinate the meat and portion in zip lock bags? I plan on cutting the meat before cooking.
Will I have to cook it before I freeze it or could I freeze it raw? Have sodium issues, but LOVE fajitas. This looks low in sodium, but just in case, how would I modify this to keep the flavor but lose the salty if it is? Will this work for other meats? I made these today and OMG, best ever! I used carne picada meat and I also grilled pineapple chunks, then added pepper flakes!
The sweet n Spicey combo was so good my family ate every last bit!!!! Thanks for sharing recipe!! This fajita marinade is the only you need! Sooooo delicious. I only used the juice of one decent lemon and 2 tablespoons of olive oil. Definitely printing this recipe! The perfect marinade! Used on beef and chicken. Used the meat I had sirloin tip roast cut into steaks. Will def make again! Thank you! How would this work with chicken instead of beef?
Made it with beef and it was Fantastic! Hi Amy! Thank you so much! Needed way more than 3 min per side to get to medium rare and was I supposed to put oil in the pan before the meat? The directions say add the remaining oil before the veggies but it never said to add any to begin with aside from the marinade.
Good but kinda incomplete recipe. Tip for the first comment, preheat cast iron for at least 10 minutes…. You will get great color and flavor on the steak.
Plus the steak is thin so 3 mins per side should come out perfect. This marinade recipe was outstanding!
We used elk and will definitely be making this again. Thanks for a great recipe. The absolute best fajitas I have ever made! I marinated overnight….
Hey there! We meal prepped this for the week and we are so excited to eat it! I sampled a bit beforehand.
We use it on the regular at our house. Thanks for the great recipe! My boyfriend gave me the biggest compliment by saying they were the best steak fajitas he has had, including at restaurants. This is significant since we do live in Tucson, AZ. The flank steak was so tender and delicious!
Making it again for Super Bowl Sunday. This time on the grill…. I smoked the house out doing it on the cast iron on the stove.. Other times, I drizzle a bit of the marinade over the veggies as they cook. No wrong answer here! Just found this. Now my husband wants this or your chicken fajitas 3 x a week. I make my own flour tortillas and guacamole.
I will be making this again tonight. My sons Birthday today so made this for him at his house, I used skirt steak and all the ingredients as written including the poblano pepper, i had to cook this on a glass top in a cast iron pan, he only had a fan under the microwave above the stove, i knew this was gona be smoky as hell, had to open all the windows and doors to get the smoke out but it was well worth it the meat was so tender, and the fajitas were delicious, i did preheat the cast iron pan for 15 minutes, DID NOTadd any oil to the pan before i put the meat in, the marinade has oil in it , also while cooking the meat added the marinade to the vegetables, this was delicious and im definitely going to make again but probably on my blackstone grill at my house or a regular charcoal grill, for dinner tonight i give this a 5 star rating, best recipe ive tried in a long time, thank you.
Does anyone have a suggestion about how long to marinate if the steak is cut up before cooking? I made it exactly according to the recipe except I used a round steak that the butcher had run through his tenderizer machine. It tasted wonderful. And so EASY.
Although, on occasion I add two pounds of shrimp to the leftover marinade, cook and serve along side the steak.. But, this recipe…is…too amazing to just move past! I was making a giant batch so I cut up about four pounds of steak and marinated overnight. I also doubled the recipe in general for the marinade except I only used 1. The steak that came out was absolutely delicious! I served it up with guacamole, corn salsa and other fixins and my family really loved it.
They were especially hyping up how tender the steak was. These were so good! I used striploin but otherwise followed the recipe and they were a big hit! Had a nice black bean salad on the side. If you want to avoid a smoke filled house when using a cast iron pan, use grapeseed oil to season and cook with.
It has a high smoke point. Thank you!! These are the BEST fajitas ever! My husband rated them at a perfect Again, thank you these were absolutely amazing!
Trying this marinade tonight, the only thing I did different was added more garlic and I used smoked paprika!! I picked this marinade because all the delightful reviews!! Awesome marinade!!
Delicious even the my orange juice I had on hand. Next time I will try the pineapple. Topped off with fresh salsa and quacamole…yum! I also added cilantro lime rice, black beans, and shredded cheese. These are amazing. New to the flat Blackstone scene — But, my goodness this recipe was awesome. Well worth the prep. HUGE compliments from all on these amazing Fajitas!!
Thank you for the great recipe. Introduced hubby to fajitas and did he ever LOVE them! I am marinading another steak to fix them again tonite! That marinade really is to die for.
Used it on a skirt steak cooked on a grill over charcoal. Think I just ruined myself for restaurant fajitas. You are absolutely right, these are the best fajitas I ever had! I had a lot of marinade left so I simmered it a bit and folded it into the cut steak.
Just delicious. It is so yummy. I grilled the flank steak. I did not put poblano because of my small grandchildren. I highly recommend this recipe. Thank you. Absolutely delicious! New favourite recipe! Will definitely make again. Can I marinate this overnight? I saw a comment that said no more than hours but I was hoping that 24 hrs would be ok. This recipe sounds amazing! I have tried so many fajita recipes but this one is the show stopper!!
It truly is the best! Excellent marinade. Will be adding this to our meal rotations for sure. Will definitely be making this again. Had sirloin on hand, so used that, but will use skirt or flank steak next time. Thank you, Marzia for this fabulous recipe! We loved these fajitas! My husband is a super foodie and had his marinade that he always raved about! I cooked them on the grill, but not ALL the way as I knew they were going to warm in their juices in the oven for a while until he got home.
I marinaded the meat in straight pineapple first for a bout 2 hours to make sure it was tender and then switched the meat to the marinade. I used sirloin strips as they had no skirt steak out here in the country where I now live! Outstanding recipe for fajitas. I marinated skirt steak, then grilled over charcoal. Let rest for minutes then slice against the grain into strips. My favorite pinned recipe ever!
Figured I should probably comment finally. I make it all the time and the family loves it. Usually do a strip steak. We skip the cilantro and still amazing. Also works great with chicken. This was great! Left out the red pepper flakes due to some sensitive palates in our house. Still tons of flavor. I put a little bit of the marinade aside and marinated the peppers and onions a bit before cooking them. Delicious tasty goodness!
