Fajita Marinade

Cultural Context

Fajitas originated in the Tex-Mex cuisine of the southwestern United States, drawing from the culinary traditions of Mexican ranch workers. The marinade is essential for infusing flavor into grilled meats, especially skirt steak or chicken, which are typically served with sautéed peppers and onions. Today, fajitas have become a popular dish in many parts of the world, often customized with various proteins and toppings.
