Ingredients
- Juice from 2 limes
- 2 to 4 Tablespoons of oil
- 1 teaspoon of dried oregano
- 1 teaspoon of dried cumin
- ½ teaspoon of chili powder
- ¼ cup of fresh cilantro chopped
- salt and pepper to taste
- 1 large onion cut into wedges
- 2 bell peppers cut into strips (any color)
- 2 small zucchinis halved and cut into strips
- 4 garlic cloves missed
- 1 Jalapeño cut into thin strips
- 1 tomato cut into wedges
- 8 to 12 flour tortillas fajita style
Instructions
- For the marinade, in a small bowl, combine and stir together the juice of limes, oil, spices, cilantro, and salt and pepper to taste.
- Combine the onion, bell peppers, zucchini, garlic, and jalapenos in a bowl, add marinade, and mix well. You can use your hands for this. You don't need to let the marinade sit with the veggies.
- Grill the vegetables in a large skillet on medium-high heat and cook for about 6 to 7 minutes, or until tender. Add tomatoes at the last minute so that they are lightly cooked.
- Lightly toast tortillas over medium heat and place grilled vegetables in them.

Notes
- Adjust the flavors. Don’t like a lot of lime? Use one lime instead to reduce the flavor. Like it spicy? Then use more chilies! There’s really a lot you can do to make this veggie fajita recipe your own!
- Don't overcook the veggies. Leaving them a little bit crisp-tender makes a better veggie fajita!
