Notes
- Sear the meat: For added depth of flavor, sear the fajita meat in a hot skillet before placing it in the slow cooker. This step caramelizes the surface and locks in the juices.
- Make extra for leftovers: These fajitas taste great the next day. Make a larger batch and enjoy easy meals throughout the week.
- Add citrus: Squeeze some fresh lime juice over the fajitas just before serving. The acidity brightens up the flavors and adds a fresh note.
- Steak options: Skirt steak or flank steak are the two best choices for steak fajitas.
- Fajitas toppings: Sour cream, shredded cheese, shredded lettuce, sliced jalapenos, sliced avocado, salsa, etc...
