We all love fajitas and this recipe from our friends at Viking makes them even simpler and stress-free. You can substitute steak for chicken, use a combination of both, or even opt for a vegetarian version by adding mushrooms and extra vegetables. The spices can be easily swapped out for a shop bought fajita or taco spice blend.
