Servings: 4 people
- 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
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.
