Notes

One important tip to keep in mind when making grilled beef fajitas with onions and bell peppers is to cook the beef to a medium-rare temperature to maximize its flavor. This will allow the meat to retain its juices and tenderness, resulting in a more succulent and flavorful fajita. To ensure that the beef is cooked to the right temperature, use a meat thermometer and aim for an internal temperature of around 125°F to 130°F before removing it from the grill. Once the beef is cooked to perfection, slice it thinly against the grain and serve it up with the caramelized onions and bell peppers for a meal that’s sure to satisfy.
