## 👩🍳 How to Make It
1. **Cook the pasta** according to package instructions until al dente. Drain and set aside.
2. **Season the steak and shrimp** with chili powder, smoked paprika, cumin, oregano, salt, and pepper.
3. **Heat olive oil** in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Sear the steak slices until browned and cooked to your liking. Remove and set aside.
4. In the same skillet, cook the shrimp until pink and opaque, about 2 minutes per side. Remove and set aside.
5. **Sauté the veggies**: Add the sliced peppers, onions, and garlic to the skillet. Cook until softened but still slightly crisp.
6. **Combine**: Return the steak and shrimp to the skillet. Stir in the heavy cream or sour cream, letting the sauce simmer and thicken slightly.
7. Toss the cooked pasta into the skillet, mixing everything until the pasta is well coated with the fajita sauce.
8. Garnish with fresh cilantro and a squeeze of lime juice before serving.
