Onion – A white or yellow onion sliced thin for that signature fajita aroma.
Olive oil – For sautéing the vegetables.
Fajita seasoning – Store-bought or homemade (chili powder, cumin, garlic powder, paprika, oregano, salt, and pepper).
Lime juice – Adds brightness and balances the richness.
Shredded cheese – Cheddar, Monterey Jack, or a Mexican blend work perfectly.
Optional add-ins – Black beans, corn, or diced tomatoes for extra heartiness.
Fresh cilantro – For garnish and freshness.
