Ingredients

  • 1-2 tablespoons olive oil
  • 3 cloves garlic freshly minced
  • 2 cups bell pepper
  • 1 cup red onion thinly sliced
  • 1 cup mushrooms sliced
  • 2 jalapeños seeded and sliced
  • 3 tablespoons fajita seasoning*
  • 1/2 fresh lime sliced

Instructions

  • Heat a large skillet to medium heat, then add in your olive oil. Then add the garlic, peppers, onion, mushrooms and jalapenos.
  • Sauté the vegetables for 2-3 minutes. Add the seasonings and toss to coat everything evenly with the spices. Cook an additional 4-5 minutes, until cooked through.
  • Lastly, squeeze about half a fresh lime (or 1/4 quarter if you are sensitive to citrus) over the fajita veggies the last minute of cooking. It will pop, sizzle and steam!
