Summary
Fajitas are one of the most social dinner entrees we know. Everybody sits around the table, assembling steak, vegetables, salsa, sour cream, guacamole, and cheese—everything or just a few, selectively—according to preference. Feel free to substitute flank, hanger, or flap for the skirt steak in this recipe.
Game plan: Make a batch of Pico de Gallo salsa before you begin.
