Recipe: Fajitas Are What's For Dinner!

We had delicious fajitas for dinner! Fajitas are a great choice on a Keto Diet. All you need to do is eliminate the tortilla, but everything else fits the Keto diet perfectly! Below is the recipe I used tonight. Be sure to see the end of the recipe for recipe suggestions. 


Recipe (Family Size Portion)

Ingredients 
2 lbs Flank Steak 
3 Bell Peppers, Sliced
(Choose, green, yellow,  red, orange or a mix. It's up to you. )
1 Large Onion, Sliced
4 Tbsp Butter
Salt & Pepper

Condiments (Optional)
Cheddar  Cheese
Sour Cream
Diced Tomato
Sliced Avocado 
Salsa
Fresh Cilantro


Directions:
Melt butter in a large pan. Toss in cut up peppers and onions into pan add salt and pepper. Sauté until onions are translucent and peppers are no longer crisp. 

Salt & pepper the steaks. Cook the flank steaks on the grill or in a frying pan. If frying, fry in coconut oil. Fry or grill steaks until they are medium (a little pink) or to your desired doneness.  

Slice steak into strips. Top with sautéed peppers  and onions then add desired condiments. 

Serves 4

Recipe Suggestions:
Any type of steak you enjoy can be used. Just be sure it has enough fat to satisfy your Keto Diet needs.

Taco seasoning or Fajita seasoning can be used instead of just salt & pepper.  If it is a seasoning mix, be sure there is nothing added to the mix other then spices. Keep it as natural as possible.  Better yet make your own seasoning mix. Check out this post for seasoning recipes: Taco & Fajita Seasoning Recipes

Change up your meat! You can do chicken or shrimp fajitas as well. Or combine two proteins for shrimp & steak fajitas for example. This recipe is so easy to change to fit what you are in the mood for!
