If there’s one dish that knows how to bring the party, it’s fajitas. Whether it’s steak, chicken, shrimp—or all three—nothing beats that smoky sizzle and bold flavor combo. The secret to unlocking that restaurant-style magic at home? Cooking it all together in a trusty Bayou Classic® Cast Iron Skillet.
Why Cast Iron?
That deep sear, smoky flavor, and beautifully caramelized veggies only happen when your pan means business. Bayou Classic’s cast iron holds heat like a champ, making it perfect for layered cooking—steak first, then chicken, then shrimp—each one soaking up the seasoning and juices left behind.
Homemade Fajita Seasoning:
- 1 tsp chili powder
- 1 tsp paprika
- 1 tsp cumin
- ½ tsp garlic powder
- ½ tsp onion powder
- ½ tsp oregano
- Salt & black pepper to taste
- A dash of cayenne
Add to your meat and seafood before it hits the skillet and sprinkle a bit more over your bell peppers and onions for good measure.
One Skillet. Big Flavor.
- Heat your Bayou Classic® Cast Iron Skillet over medium-high heat.
- Sear steak strips until browned and just cooked through. Remove and repeat with chicken, then shrimp.
- Toss in sliced bell peppers and onions. Let them soak up all those glorious pan juices.
- Add everything back to the skillet and give it a quick toss to combine.
Serve It Right
Transfer it all to the Bayou Classic® Cast Iron Fiesta Fajita Pan, still sizzling and ready to impress. The included trivet keeps your table safe while your guests dive in with tortillas, fresh toppings, and big appetites.
