Serving: Serve the steak fajitas as a fun, interactive meal where everyone assembles their own fajitas. Pair with Mexican rice, refried beans, or a side salad for a complete meal.
Storage: Store leftover steak and vegetables separately in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days. To reheat, quickly sauté the steak and vegetables together or microwave them. Tortillas are best fresh but can be stored in a sealed bag for 1-2 days.
Variants:
Chicken Fajitas: Substitute the steak with boneless, skinless chicken breasts or thighs for a lighter option.
Vegetarian Fajitas: Skip the meat and double the amount of peppers and onions, or add in other vegetables like zucchini, mushrooms, or corn.
Spicy Fajitas: Add extra chili powder or a chopped jalapeño to the marinade for a spicier kick.
