Tips from the Pillsbury Kitchens

  • tip 1
    In between making fajitas on the grill, use several moist paper towels to clean the contact grill easily. Keep the portion you grasp dry so the heat doesn't transfer to your fingers. Unplug the grill when cleaning, then immediately plug in again to continue grilling.
  • tip 2
    Serve your simple Grilled Steak Fajitas with classic fixings, such as extra sour cream and salsa, guacamole, lettuce and lime wedges.
  • tip 3
    Serve Grilled Steak Fajitas with Spanish rice or refried beans for a hearty meal.
