Variety of great spices in a steak fajita. We enjoyed this for dinner last night. The lime flavor came through a little strong for my DH. Would have liked to add the bulk of the liquid (soy sauce) later, after the meat had seared a little, and also might have tossed the tortilla strips in a deep fryer for that bubbly light texture. Leftovers were great the next day! Made for PRMR.
