How Fajitas Became a Favorite
Fajitas are a combination of Mexican and American cuisine from the skillets of cowboys and vaqueros.
In the 1930s, ranch owners along the Texas-Mexico border paid their ranch hands in part with skirt steak. The rancheros grilled the steak with sizzling, local vegetables to make the first fajitas.
Fajitas remained a regional secret until 1969 when a Texas meat vendor opened a roadside fajita stand. Soon, fajitas were in Mexican restaurants throughout the Rio Grande Valley—now, restaurants across the U.S. serve them to millions of people.
Our GOYA® Fajitas use zesty vegetables and flavorful skirt steak to recall the adventurousness that inspired the original dish. Try them at home today!
