Blackstone Chicken Fajitas

Fajitas are one of my favorite things to make on our griddle. This recipe starts with boneless chicken breasts, sliced thin for quick cooking and maximum seasoning coverage. You can use a packet of your favorite fajita seasoning, or opt for a homemade version. Either way, it’ll be delicious.

The Blackstone is perfect for the even, high-temp cooking required to make restaurant-style fajitas at home. This keeps everything juicy and prevents the relatively common problem of overcooked, dry chicken, or chicken that lacks that signature char of a proper fajita (I don’t order them in the restaurant unless they coming SIZZLING and smoking from the kitchen). The large surface area also lets you cook everything at once which is great for efficiency and speed.

You can serve the fajitas with your favorite tortillas, either flour or corn, which we also warm right on the griddle. Serve with your favorite toppings like guacamole, shredded cheese, salsa, and sour cream. If you’re making your own seasoning, it’s easy to adjust the spice level and ingredients to suit your taste preferences.
