Steak fajita roll-ups have tender flavorful beef wrapped around colorful veggies. Take your steak fajitas up a notch with these tasty fajita rolls that will be devoured. This post may contain affiliate links. Read my disclosure policy here.
These stuffed fajita roll-ups are a delicious meal that everyone will love. The steak is marinated in olive oil, garlic, and spices.
Recipe Tips:
- If your steak is thick place it between two pieces of plastic wrap and pounds it out using a kitchen mallet or rolling pin.
- Make sure your pan is smoking hot! I use cast iron.
- Serve this with a side of guacamole, salsa, and sour cream.
- Always cut the roll-ups against the grain, which ensures a tender bite every time
Can I grill these?
Absolutely! In the summertime, I usually grill these to perfection on a hot grill. Just make sure to saute your veggies before rolling.
How to store leftovers
Store in an airtight container in the refrigerator for 3-4 days. To reheat, I slice the roll-ups against the grain and add a little butter to a skillet, heat until warm.
How do I know when my steak is done?
Skirt steak or any thinly cut steak will cook fast. I like mine medium rare!
Rare: 120 F degrees (will come up to 125 F degrees)
Medium Rare: 130 F degrees (will come up to 135 F degrees)
Medium: 140 F degrees (will come up to 145 F degrees)
Medium Well: 145 F degrees (will come up to 150 F degrees)
Well Done: 155 F degrees (will come up to 160 F degrees)
