Sheet Pan Beef Fajitas

One of my favorite Mexican dishes is fajitas. It doesn’t matter whether they are made with chicken, shrimp or beef just like these sheet pan beef fajitas. I am a fan of them all.
I have tried several different versions of fajitas. My favorite way to have the beef ones are on the grill, but that isn’t always possible. Well, this sheet pan version is a very close second to grilling and it is super easy to make and clean up.
All the vegetables and meat are cook on one big sheet pan. My family doesn’t love fajitas as much as I do, but I think this recipe just may have them converted now.
The seasoning gets put on the meat and veggies and is better than anything I have tried in a seasoning packet. To serve, I heated the flour tortillas with a little cheese before placing the beef and veggies on. Then the final touch is a little sour cream and pico de gallo. Mmmmmm. They are muy bien!
