By grilling the beef steak, vegetables and flat-breads, this entire fajita recipe is cooked in the great outdoors. For cold-weather cooking, pan-fry or broil steak and veggies instead of firing up the grill. See the Cook’s Notes for tips on marinating. You can add an extra sweet pepper for a veggie boost if you wish.
