Steak Fajitas

Steak Fajitas

This is very easy and very good basic fajita recipe that you can modify however you'd like and use a variety of cuts but I prefer either sirloin steak or flanks.  I like to increase the amount of marinate and also add other citrus if I have it (orange, lemon).

Seriously one of my favorite indulgences.  You haven't tried it, it is a must do. If you'd like to skip the bun, you can also put your burger on a nice bed of greens or other favorite salad.
