A fajita is a popular Mexican dish that typically consists of grilled meat, such as chicken, beef, or shrimp, served with sautéed onions and bell peppers. The ingredients are often wrapped in a warm tortilla, allowing for easy handling and consumption. Fajitas are known for their vibrant flavors and are commonly accompanied by toppings like guacamole, sour cream, and salsa. Originally, the term "fajita" referred specifically to the cut of meat used, known as skirt steak. Over time, the dish has evolved to include various proteins and vegetables, making it a versatile option for many diners. Fajitas are often served sizzling on a hot plate, enhancing the dining experience.
