For an extra layer of flavor, consider adding a splash of Worcestershire sauce to the marinade. If you don't have skirt steak, flank steak can be used as a substitute. Be sure to cut it thinly against the grain. To keep your fajitas warm while serving, wrap them in a clean kitchen towel or place them in a warming drawer. Customize your fajitas by adding other vegetables, such as mushrooms, zucchini, or corn. For a spicier kick, leave the seeds in the jalapeno pepper or add a pinch of cayenne pepper to the marinade.
