Comments: I made up the recipe for these fajitas with a little bit of apprehension, as I was short on fresh cilantro, but it turned out great!! My only advice to those who wish to make this recipe is to add a little more seasoning to give the meat flavor while it's cooking. I used Greek Seasoning and it tasted wonderful, although I might recommend perhaps a fajita seasoning packet instead.
Not to good...
