Sheet-Pan Steak Fajitas Recipe

A sizzling steak fajita dinner packed with Tex-Mex flavor — all roasted together on one sheet pan for easy cleanup.
You know those nights when you really want to skip dishes but still want something fun and satisfying for dinner? That’s where these Sheet-Pan Steak Fajitas come in hot (literally).
Juicy strips of steak, caramelized bell peppers, and tender onions — all roasted on one pan and bursting with smoky, zesty flavor. It’s the kind of dinner that feels like takeout, but made in your own oven in under 30 minutes. No flipping. No stovetop splatter. Just chop, toss, roast, and eat.
We serve it with warm tortillas and all the toppings: guac, salsa, sour cream… and maybe a side of chips if it’s that kind of night.

Sarah’s Tips:
-
Steak tips: Make sure to slice against the grain for tender fajita strips.
-
No steak? This works just as well with chicken or shrimp — adjust cook time accordingly.
-
Prep ahead: Marinate the steak and chop veggies in the morning. Dinner practically makes itself at night!
