Notes

Expert Tips

  • Stovetop Method: In a large cast iron skillet over medium heat, place your oiled and seasoned veggies on the hot pan. Saute for 7-10 minutes until tender and charred to your liking.
  • Fajita Seasoning blend: If desired, you can use a packet of seasoning that you would use for chicken or veggie fajitas, however, I find that a simple salt/pepper/oregano mix is perfect. Depending on your spice preferences, a packet or homemade fajita seasoning (a simple blend of cumin, chili powder, onion powder, garlic powder, and paprika) would taste great. Taco seasoning would also work!
  • Variations: Feel free to use any color of bell peppers and a variety of onions you like. You can also add portobello mushrooms or another variety if desired. They make a great addition if you enjoy mushrooms!
  • Fajitas: These veggies go great with any protein– whether you make vegetable fajitas, chicken fajitas, steak fajitas, or shrimp fajitas. Use flour tortillas or corn tortillas, and garnish with your favorite toppings: cilantro, sour cream, lime juice, and more. Keep in mind that you’ll want to use carb-friendly tortillas if keto.
