Fajita
A vibrant and flavorful dish bursting with the smoky, zesty taste of fajita spices. Perfectly cooked capsicums, mushrooms, and red onion are infused with garlic, lime, and fresh coriander, making it a versatile addition to tortillas, tacos, or any plant-based meal.
Ingredients
- 3 capsicums (bell peppers) different colours, sliced into strips
- 3 portobello mushroom or 8-10 button mushrooms, sliced
- 1 red onion sliced
- 3 cloves garlic minced
- ½ tsp chilli powder
- ½ tsp cumin powder
- ½ tsp smoked paprika
- ½ lime
- handful of fresh coriander, chopped. (Approx 1/4 cup once chopped)
Instructions
- To season, toss the sliced capsicum, onions, mushrooms and minced garlic in the spice mix (excluding coriander)
- Heat a non-stick pan or grill on high
- Add seasoned vegetables to a hot pan or grill and allow to dry-fry for three minutes before tossing. (Add a dash of liquid vege stock if needed, however too much liquid will prevent the charring of vegetables)
- Cook until a slight charring appears on the onion and capsicum to get that fajita-style chargrilled flavour
- .Remove from heat. Toss through chopped corriander and squeeze over half a lime.
- Give it a try and adjust the spice mix to your tasting. Smoked Chipotle powder also adds a great fajita flavour, or you can choose your favourite taco or fajita pre-mix seasoning for a quick alternative.
