Fajita is a Tex-Mex, Texan-Mexican American or Tejano, diminutive term 
for little strips of meat cut from the beef skirt, the most common cut 
used to make fajitas. The word fajita is not known to have appeared in 
print until 1971, according to the Oxford English Dictionary. (The word 
faja is Spanish for "strip", or "belt", from the Latin fascia, "band") 
Although fajita originally referred to these strips of beef skirt, 
fajitas now are made with a variety of fillings, such as green/red/yellow 
peppers, onions, chilies, and jalape+Xo peppers. (FROM THE WIKI)

My late brother, Robert, who was an accomplished chef learned about
fajitas working in a Mexican owned restaurant in Corpus Christi, TX.
He told me this recipe was as close as anything he had found to what
he was taught during his time there.
