Instructions

Prep
1

• Wash and dry produce.  • Halve, peel, and thinly slice onion. Core, deseed, and thinly slice bell pepper. Quarter lime.

Cook Filling & Warm Tortillas
2

• Heat a drizzle of oil in a large, preferably nonstick, pan over medium-high heat. Add onion and bell pepper; season with salt and pepper. Cook, stirring occasionally, until veggies start to soften, 2-3 minutes.  • Add beef*; season with Fajita Spice Blend, salt, and pepper. Cook, breaking up meat into pieces, until beef is browned and cooked through and veggies are softened, 4-6 minutes. • Remove pan from heat. Arrange tortillas on top of beef and veggies in an single layer (it's OK if the tortillas overlap a bit). Set aside until tortillas are warm and pliable, 1-2 minutes.

Make Crema
3

• Meanwhile, in a small bowl, combine sour cream and a squeeze of lime juice (big squeeze for 4 servings); season with salt and pepper. Stir in water 1 tsp at a time until mixture reaches a drizzling consistency.

Serve
4

• Divide tortillas between plates and fill with beef and fajita veggies (if there's excess grease in the pan, use a slotted spoon to transfer the filling to the tortillas). Top with Mexican cheese blend, lime crema, and as much hot sauce as you like. Serve with remaining lime wedges on the side.  • TIP: You can also serve everything family-style for a build-your-own fajita bar!

Ground Meat is fully cooked when internal temperature reaches 160°.
