During the summer when it comes to cooking – the easier the better.
Bonus points if I can toss it on the grill and basically walk away (we don’t have AC and when it’s hot out, it’s torture to have the oven going in my kitchen).
These steak fajita skewers are tasty, easy, and they can be grilled or baked in the oven.
How to make fajita beef skewers
I put this recipe together for fajita steak kebabs while I was putting together my mini-course sharing how I meal plan, The Meal Planning Method.
I needed to follow what I taught and create meal plans, but I also needed something quick and easy because I basically lived behind my computer for that month: shooting and editing videos, writing sales funnels, creating images, etc.
This recipe was just what I needed: easy, tasty, and it wasn’t a stir fry (I was stir fried out).
The best part about these fajita beef skewers? They don’t need time to marinate. Just mix them, skewer them, and grill them and you’ll have a ton of flavor!
21 Day Fix Container Counts
After high demand, I am slowly converting all my recipes over to include Ultimate Portion Fix counts.
Full recipe: 5 green, 6 red.
Per skewer: 2/3 green, 3/4 red.
You could also measure out the meat individually in your containers and eat it that way for full containers.
Supplies needed to shish kebabs
- Skewers (I use these ones)
- Spices (listed below in the recipe card)
- or if you’re in a hurry a fajita seasoning will work too. If you’re gluten free, read the labels a lot of them have flour in the ingredients.
TBK’s Pro Tip: I prefer using the metal skewers but if you use wooden, remember to soak them in water for a few hours before use.
Another quick tip is to buy stew meat. This way the beef is already cut up for you. That’s what I did for this recipe and it saved me a couple of extra minutes.

Instructions

- Slide the vegetables in steak cubes onto the skewer. Use whatever pattern you want, I like to add onion between every vegetable and beef for extra flavor.
