Juicy Crock Pot Beef Fajitas – An easy and delicious weeknight (or any night) dinner with minimal effort involved!
A few days ago I posted a recipe for a homemade fajita seasoning mix, but what good is a fajita seasoning if you’re not making fajitas?! And these aren’t just any fajitas, these are crock pot beef fajitas – so super easy and so, so delicious! They are a family pleasing meal, for sure.
As the weather is getting warmer I’m feeling like I want to spend less and less time standing in front of a hot stove cooking away. I want to be outside enjoying this beautiful weather! Our grill is a little out of commission right now because we’re waiting for some new fire tamers to come in. So that means cooking inside. Boo.
Crock pot to the rescue! I seriously love good crock pot recipes. I’m suuuuper picky about them though (ie: chicken recipes with cream of something soup that all taste the same and are all one bland boring color – no thank you). I prefer my meals with lots of color and the crock pot is no exception. Good thing these crock pot beef fajitas measured up!
The peppers lend so much color and flavor to the fajitas. I used red pepper but you can use green pepper too. I was going to use both green and red but somehow my green bell pepper went missing. I’m pretty sure a certain toddler I know ran off with it when I was unloading the groceries. We’re bound to find it when it starts rotting and smelling 🙁
Either that or I just forgot to buy it. Anything is possible. Mommy brain I tell ya, it’s awful.
These crockpot beef fajitas are going to be making an appearance on our menu often. They’re so tasty, so easy, and so versatile. They’d be great for a weeknight dinner, doubled (tripled, etc.) and served to a crowd for a party or prepped and frozen for whenever you need.
Serve these up with your favorite fajita toppings. We topped ours with cheese, guacamole and salsa. Enjoy!
Ingredients
- 1 1-1.5 lb London Broil Steak
- 4 Tbsp fajita seasoning
- 1 onion thinly sliced
- 1 red bell pepper thinly sliced
- 1/2 C water
Instructions
- Place steak in the crock pot and sprinkle with the fajita seasoning.
- Add onion, pepper and water. Cook on low for 6 hours.

Recipe Notes
Stir peppers/onions twice during the cooking process and check water level to prevent drying out. Add a little water if necessary. br]

I don’t think I’ve made fajitas on the stovetop since I started making them in the crockpot. Soooo easy!
Lauren Stevens says

Wow! These look amazing! I love making fajitas because they’re easy to put together on little or no notice on a week night…and they’re delicious too. Although I normally take the short cut of getting a pre-cut bag of fajita veggies (onion & peppers). I will definitely be making these!

I live in an apartment complex and although they have little grill stations around, it’s not the same as it is at home with my father’s large grill patio! I can relate to missing out, but like you I enjoy crock pot recipes as well. This looks fabulous! I love that there’s no cream of X soup. Rock on!

These look awesome, and would be perfect for paleo (omitting tortillas, maybe using the paleo wraps or on top of a salad) and clean eaters, too! I pinned this for later. Thanks for the delicious recipe.

I love my crock-pot. Honestly I don’t know how we would ever eat anything without it. This sounds like an awesome recipe!

Thanks Lindsay! With two kids now I’m finding I need to rely on it more often in order to get dinner on the table.

I’ve just started crock-potting again after 20 years and am in my recipe gathering mode. This one looks so simple and delicious!
Dee Fedor says
Never would have thought of making Fajitas this way! Wish I had some beef right now. Maybe I will make this for Christmas Eve.
