Fajitas

Cultural Context

Fajitas originated in the Tex-Mex cuisine of the United States, influenced by Mexican cooking traditions. They typically feature grilled meat served with sautéed peppers and onions, wrapped in tortillas. The dish has become popular for its vibrant flavors and communal style of serving, allowing diners to assemble their own tacos at the table.
