“This recipe is fabulous! I made it for the first time tonight and followed it exactly as you have it. It was so delicious! I served it with white corn tortillas, and my husband didn't even make it to the table with his tacos! He just loved the spices. Than” — a cook, 5.0★
“These were fantastic! I don't normally eat fajitas because I don't care for bell peppers. Hatch chiles are in season here in the southwest, so I used those and poblano peppers instead of the bell peppers. The seasoning and marinade were outstanding. I'm so hap” — a cook, 5.0★
