Cooking Tips

  • Slice against the grain: This keeps the steak tender and easier to chew.
  • Use multiple colors of peppers: It makes the dish more vibrant and tasty.
  • For extra char: Broil the fajitas for 2–3 minutes at the end of baking.
  • Gas stove tortilla tip: Toast tortillas directly over flame for smoky char marks.
  • Make-ahead option: Marinate steak overnight with spices for deeper flavor.
