Notes

  • Before cooking, remove the beef from the marinade and pat it lightly with paper towels.
 
  • For juicy fajitas, cook the beef pieces over medium heat and make sure to stir gently. This will guarantee your beef will have the perfect texture.
 
  • Add some tomato slices, cilantro, or lime wedges to add brightness and a touch of freshness to the recipe.
