It’s no surprise around here I love a good sheet pan meal. I’ve got one pan greek chicken, sheet pan honey garlic shrimp and a classic sheet pan sausage and veggies.

I love them because they’re so easy to make and you only have one pan and the end of it when you’re ready to clean up! Easy and healthy dinner recipes are great ones in my book. And these sheet pan steak fajitas are exactly that!

All you need are some peppers, onions, steak and spices for this easy weeknight meal.

What kind of beef do you use for fajitas?

Traditionally steak fajitas are made with a skirt steak, so that’s what we’re using here!  It’s long, flat and known for its flavor! Because it’s so flavorful you don’t have to marinade the steak very long, only a few minutes! It’s very similar to a flank steak. Because of that, you can use those cuts of beef interchangeably in this recipe, but I recommend the skirt steak if you can get it!

Spices for sheet pan steak fajitas seasoning:

The key ingredients for the fajita seasoning are pretty simple. You probably have most of these in your pantry right now!

• Chili powder

• Garlic powder
