What We Ordered and the Macro Math

Seventy-nine grams of clean protein hit the table before your fork even touches a side dish. The 3-Way Fajita skillet stacks 4 oz of grilled chicken breast (35g protein), 4 oz of grilled steak (28g protein), and a heap of grilled shrimp (16g protein) directly over charred peppers and onions.

Order pinto beans as your side for an extra 8g of protein and 15g of slow-digesting complex carbs to restock your glycogen stores without dumping saturated fat into your system. Those sautéed bell peppers and onions pack 120mg of natural vitamin C plus potassium to crush post-workout muscle soreness, known on the gym floor as agujetas, so you stay ready for tomorrow's squat session.

  • 4 oz Grilled Chicken Breast: 35g protein

  • 4 oz Grilled Steak: 28g protein

  • Grilled Shrimp: 16g protein

  • Pinto Beans Side: 8g protein, 15g carbs

The Fuerza Score: 8.8 out of 10

An 8.8 Fuerza Score—our gold standard for clean, high-protein restaurant fuel—does not happen by accident. Los Cabos earns this mark by using a minimal layer of flat-top oil, keeping the lean-to-fat meat ratio exceptionally high, and letting you swap heavy sides for whole pinto beans.

  • 79g base protein from three distinct lean sources

  • 120mg Vitamin C for joint and muscle recovery

  • Low oil volume compared to typical cantina skillets

The Order-This-Instead Upgrade

Leave the house chimichanga for people who treat workout days like cheat days. Swapping that deep-fried flour tortilla for the 3-Way Fajita skillet slashes roughly 45g of deep-fry fat and 350 empty calories while injecting over 25g of extra protein directly into your day.

  • Avoid: Deep-fried chimichanga with queso dip

  • Order: 3-Way Fajita Skillet with pinto beans

  • Result: Save 45g fat, gain 25g+ protein

Drive to Los Cabos in Amelia today, order the 3-Way Fajita skillet with pinto beans, and lock in 87g of real protein without touching a drop of deep-fryer oil.
