Sizzling pieces of chili lime seasoned steak on a bed of grilled peppers, onions and mushrooms and wrapped in a warm flour tortilla. These Grilled Chili Lime Steak Fajitas are a Tex-Mex fiesta waiting to happen.
I love fajitas. LOVE. Like, in high school I’d eat the leftovers for breakfast the next morning and repulse my family with the aroma of it at such an early hour, kind of love. In my book, you just can’t go wrong with perfectly cooked steak and lots of veggies all rolled into a tortilla. If you can use a knife, you can totally make these Grilled Chili Lime Steak Fajitas as chopping vegetables is the most difficult work this recipe requires.
A little prep work after breakfast and you can be enjoying fajitas for lunch. Everything marinates for a few hours and then onto the grill it goes! My only problem is that I can’t seem to keep my hands out of the veggies after they’re cooked and the steak takes its turn on the grill. The caramelization that occurs to the veggies? So good!
