Ingredients

  • 1 lb sirloin steak cut into strips
  • Orange bell pepper sliced
  • Yellow bell pepper sliced
  • Green bell pepper sliced
  • 1 medium yellow onion sliced
  • 1 Tbsp olive oil
  • 2 Tbsp taco seasoning
  • 4 10 " tortillas
  • 1 cup tex mex cheese
  • ½ cup salsa optional
  • ½ cup sour cream optional

Instructions

  • Prepare the first seven ingredients and combine in a tinfoil packet.
  • Cook over the fire or on the BBQ for 30 minutes.
  • Spray the inside of the pie iron with non-stick spray or wipe down with butter. 
  • Lay a tortilla to one side of the iron and fill with fajita mixture. Top with cheese. 
  • Fold the other half of the tortilla over the toppings to create a pocket before closing the iron. 
  • Cook over the fire for 5-10 minutes, flipping the pie iron when necessary.
  • Serve with sour cream and salsa (optional).

Notes

  • Rotate the camp cooker often over the fire for even browning and perfectly toasted tortillas.
  • Pre-slice everything at home and toss it all into a freezer bag to save time and cleanup at the campsite.
  • Add a little extra olive oil to the foil packet to keep your veggies and meat tender and juicy.
  • Use sour cream as a dipper instead of spreading it inside, so your tortilla doesn’t get soggy.
  • Let the cooked fajitas rest for 1-2 minutes before slicing—this helps the melted cheese set and keeps the filling inside where it belongs.
  • Don’t overload the pie iron or you’ll have the fillings dripping out the sides.
