This Queso Steak Fajita Skillet recipe is a quick and flavorful one-pan meal that combines tender top sirloin steak, colorful bell peppers, and creamy Gordo’s cheese dip over a bed of savory Minute Rice.

Ingredients

For the Skillet:

  • 2 cups Minute Rice
  • 2 cups chicken broth
  • 1 packet fajita seasoning
  • 8 oz tomato sauce
  • 3 bell peppers, sliced
  • ½ yellow onion, diced
  • 2 tbsp olive oil
  • 1 lb top sirloin, sliced into strips
  • Gordo’s cheese dip (use as much as you like)

Instructions

  1. Cook the Vegetables & Steak: Heat olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add the diced onion and sliced bell peppers. Sauté for 2–3 minutes, just until they begin to soften. Next, toss in the steak strips and sprinkle with the fajita seasoning. Sear the steak, stirring occasionally, until it’s cooked to your liking.
  2. Make the Rice: Pour in the Minute Rice, chicken broth, and tomato sauce. Stir well so everything is evenly combined. Bring the mixture to a gentle simmer. Cook according to your rice package instructions (if you use a different kind of rice, you may need to adjust the liquid and cook time).
  3. Add the Queso: Once the rice is cooked and most of the liquid is absorbed, generously spoon Gordo’s cheese dip over the skillet. Let it melt into the hot rice and steak.
  4. Serve: Scoop onto plates and enjoy immediately, while it’s hot and cheesy!
