I love a good fajita. Chicken, beef, veggie, doesn’t matter. They are all tasty. But I hate paying so much for beef fajitas at restaurants. I set out to conquer the mysteries of fajitas.

For the meat in my beef fajitas, I used NY strip steaks. Woah! That’s a pretty pricey meat for cheaper than restaurant fajitas! Well, yes and no. Shop sales. Find a local butcher instead of the grocery store. My NY strip was $3.29 per pound. Much less than other cuts. So shop wisely, and find a good deal on meat.

To make it an extra special meal (or maybe just seem like it is), make your own tortillas! Check out how here.

This beef fajita recipe is so easy to make and when you consider how much money you save you’ll be moving this recipe to the front of your family’s favorite meals list.

Beef Fajitas Recipe

Ingredients

1 lb beef or chicken, cut into thin strips
3 peppers, cut into thin strips
1 onion, halved and sliced
prepackaged fajita seasonings
pineapple, peeled, cored, and diced (optional)
small tortillas, flour or corn, warmed in the microwave with a piece of wet paper toweling
shredded cheese
salsa, guacamole, and sour cream

Instructions

Heat your griddle to 400 degrees F.
Sprinkle the seasoning over the meat and toss. Let marinate.

When the griddle is hot, grill the onions and peppers on a dry surface, turning when they start to blacken. When the vegetables are slightly blackened but not limp, removed them to a bowl.
