Easy Sheet Pan Steak Fajitas Recipe Highlights
Is Fajita Friday a thing? If you ask me, fajitas or tacos shouldn’t be limited to a day per week. So fajitas of any kind happen a lot around here. And honestly, when it comes to a fast midweek meal or feeding a crowd? These Easy Sheet Pan Beef Fajitas are so good and so easy.

What else can we ask for? You’re going to go crazy for these fajitas!!
Beef: I used sirloin. Flank steak or skirt steak will also work well. These flavorful cuts of beef cook quickly and are perfectly tender after being baked. Marinade: For the marinade, you’ll need lime juice, orange juice, Worcestershire sauce, soy sauce, vegetable oil, garlic powder, onion powder, chili powder, cumin, paprika, salt, and black pepper. Veggies: You’ll need bell peppers and onions. Freshly chopped cilantro leaves to garnish (optional)
1/4 cup fresh lime juice ½ cup orange juice 2 tablespoons Worcestershire sauce 2 tablespoons soy sauce 3 tablespoons vegetable oil 3 teaspoons garlic powder 3 teaspoons onion powder 2 teaspoons chili powder 2 teaspoons cumin 1 teaspoon paprika 1 teaspoon salt ½ teaspoon black pepper
Beef Marinade Add-Ons Ideas
Add 1 teaspoon of red chili flakes to the marinade if you like heat and/ or Add 1/4 cup of beer to the marinade to enhance the flavors even more.
Storing & Freezing Instructions
Store: If you have any leftovers, store them in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 3 days. When you’re ready to eat, reheat the fajitas on a sheet pan in a 350º F (180º C) oven until warmed through. Be careful not to overheat the steak; it will dry out quickly. Par-freeze the steak before slicing. Place the steak in the freezer for 15 – 20 minutes before slinging it. This extra step will help to make the slicing process easier, and you will get uniform slices. Slice the steak against the grain. Slicing the beef against the grain will help to make the steak more tender when you bite into it. Against the grain means slicing perpendicular to the lines of muscle fibers. Add more veggies. Mushrooms and zucchini are great additions to your fajita sheet pan. Make vegetarian. You can substitute the beef with meaty portobello mushroom slices, tofu, or tempeh.
