Easy Steak Fajitas on the Blackstone Griddle: Using Precut Steak

Steak fajitas on the Blackstone griddle are a quick and easy. When I’m in a hurry I’ll buy the pre cut steak from Walmart, Meijer or Kroger and just use that. With the griddle’s large surface, you can cook everything at once, but there are a few tips to make sure it comes out perfect every time. Here’s how you can make the most of your Blackstone griddle for steak fajitas:

• Start veggies first – Vegetables take a little longer to cook, so give them a head start before adding the steak.
• Don’t cook the steak too long – A few minutes on each side is all you need for a juicy, tender steak.
• You’ve got a lot of space on the Blackstone – Why not turn part of it into a quesadilla while you’re at it?

Servings: 4 people

Equipment

• 2 Spatulas

Ingredients

• 1/2 green bell pepper sliced
• 1/2 red bell pepper sliced
• 1/2 white onion sliced
• 2 tbsp avocado oil for the griddle
• 1 lb pre-sliced fajita steak store-bought, e.g., from Meijer
• 1 tbsp fajita seasoning for extra veggies
• Salt and pepper to taste
• 4 flour tortillas
• 1 cup shredded Chihuahua cheese optional, for quesadillas
• Lime wedges for serving

Instructions

• Preheat the Griddle: Set your Blackstone griddle to 375°F and add avocado oil to coat the surface.
• Cook the Veggies: Add the sliced green bell pepper, red bell pepper, and onion to the griddle. Spread them out and let them cook for about 5 minutes, flipping them with a spatula to ensure even cooking. (The veggies need a head start because the steak cooks quickly.)
• Prepare for the Steak: Move the veggies to one side of the griddle. Turn up two burners to get them hot (around 470°F if possible).
• Cook the Steak: Add the pre-sliced fajita steak to the griddle. Spread it out so the steak pieces aren’t touching for a nice sear. Let it cook for about 90 seconds, then flip to get a good sear on both sides. Remember, you don’t need to cook the steak for long because the pieces are thin.
• Combine Veggies and Steak: Once the steak is done, add the peppers and onions back to the griddle. Sprinkle them with a little more fajita seasoning and a splash of water to help everything come together.
• Sauté Together: Use two spatulas to toss everything around, making sure the steak and veggies are well mixed and sizzling.
• Make a Quesadilla (Optional): Lower the heat, add a bit more oil to the griddle, and place a tortilla down. Add cheese on top, fold the tortilla, and cook until golden and crispy on both sides.
• Serve: Slice the quesadilla (if you made one) and serve the fajitas with the grilled veggies. Plate it with lime wedges for extra flavor.
