Sizzling Fajitas

by Editorial Staff

The zest of a good Mexican fajita (sliced ​​into strips of grilled meat with vegetables) is in its curling when served. Indeed, from this sound alone, the appetite is played out, not to mention the amazing aroma and beautiful presentation. Fajita is usually served in special portioned cast iron pans. To keep it sizzling, heat the pans in the oven while you cook meat and vegetables. Instead of meat, you can take chicken or shrimp, and a marinade with lemon juice and spices will add a wonderful taste to any protein you choose. Finished fajita is laid out on hot pans and immediately served with tortillas and other traditional additives for this dish, which you will also find in the recipe.
