For best results, use high-quality fajita seasoning for a more complex flavor profile. Don't overcrowd the air fryer basket. Cook in batches to ensure even cooking and optimal crispness. Feel free to customize your fajitas with your favorite toppings, such as sour cream, guacamole, pico de gallo, or shredded cheese. If you prefer a spicier dish, add a pinch of cayenne pepper to the fajita seasoning.
