Expert Tips

Served in a bun instead of a tortilla, this sandwich features favorite fajita ingredients. For added flavor, we’ve topped the sandwich with hot pepper Monterey Jack cheese.

Either regular or gold tequila can be used in the marinade.

The sandwich filling can be served in warm flour tortillas instead of on sandwich buns.

For easy slicing, partially freeze the meat. If you’re starting with frozen meat, partially thaw it before slicing.
