Easy and Quick 30 Minute Beef Fajita

Easy,Quick,30 Minute meal in the form of this Mexican food favorite. Now, let's do this and spare a little bit of time whipping this super simple meal. No fuss, no hassle and super delicious and packed with protein. I made this Beef Fajita right after I got off work this meal saved me from so much stress.

This Beef Fajita started with the pre-sliced beef I got from the store. I then marinate it the night before so that it will b all ready for cooking once I get home from work. This has become too easy to prepare and quick to cook because these steak slices were thinly cut by our local butcher  that once I put it in a heavily heated oil, it was cooked in 5 minutes . They also have a pre- sliced pepper which I happily bought that weekend as I was planning of a Mexican themed meal throughout the week. And then the yellow onion were also handy in my pantry.

I know, it could have been easier to buy this in Taco bell, but I have no budget for that, so I made my own.  The result, simple, tasty,spicy delicious and cheaper fajita meal. ENJOY!
