These were SO good! Used the steak, but we didn't have time to grill, so sauteed all on the stove top. Can't wait to try them on the grill. I marinated the meat for about 5 hours. Also, used only the red and yellow peppers. Next time I will add some shrooms to the mix. Served with shredded sharp cheddar cheese, sliced black olives, sour cream, chopped tomatoes, salsa and diced avocados. I put my tortillas in a glass dish, cover with a damp dish towel and microwave them for a minute or so. Then let everyone add their own toppings and enjoy! Delicious! Thanks for posting Robbie Rice.

    This was very easy and a hit for our backyard get-together! I love fajitas and this sure beats the instant package of fajita seasoning! Thanks!

    Not sure if it was just me... but don't marinade your BELL peppers, when it says "add peppers," it means black and cayenne peppers. Other than that, would recommend marinading more than 2 hours. Excellent!

    This was marvelous! We each enjoyed it very much. Absolutely as good as any I have ever eaten out. I know this will become a regular in our house. We used the steak this time. Yum, yum!!!
