Fajitas come out sizzling because they are typically cooked on a hot cast iron skillet or griddle. The sizzling sound occurs when the meat and vegetables are added to the hot skillet, causing them to sear and caramelize. The heat causes the moisture from the meat and vegetables to quickly evaporate, creating steam that adds to the sizzling sound. The sizzling platter that the fajitas are traditionally served on helps to keep them hot and sizzling as they are brought to the table.
