When you ask a question like that, you have to keep in mind that different people have different ideas about what is "decent" and what is "good." I make fajitas the old fashioned way, with skirt steak. I also keep it simple. I squeeze some Key Lime juice over the meat and sprinkle on some chopped Mexican oregano, chopped garlic and a little sea salt. I'll let this rest in a zip-lock bag for only about an hour, so the acid doesn't digest the meat very much. I dry off the meat and then grill it outside (best) or broil it in the oven, slice it across the grain and serve it with warm flour or corn tortillas, salsa cruda, guacamole, chopped cilantro, and Dos XX.
