Fajitas

So last weekend Steve and I decided to make Fajitas on the grill. They were sooooo good! I found this recipe on the Internet and then modified it according to what ingredients we had.

For the marinara sauce we just used the cumin, lemon juice, soy sauce, and Worcestershire sauce and let it soak for about 4 hrs until I got home from work. Then Steve grilled them on the bbq. I also cut up red peppers and onions, put them in tin foil, and grilled them too. While Steve was grilling I made some rice and put black beans in it, along w/ refried bean. I put the rice and beans on the side, but Steve just put it all together. The chicken was soooooo good and moist, you'll have to try it. Here's the official recipe. Enjoy!!!


Bubba s Fajitas

Ingredients:
1 pound beef skirt steak
1 centiliter garlic -- chopped
juice from 1 large lime
1 teaspoon cumin
1 medium yellow onion -- sliced in rings
1 teaspoon liquid smoke
1/3 cup Worcestershire sauce
1/4 cup soy sauce
1 tablespoon chopped fresh cilantro
pepper to taste
green and yellow peppers
guacamole
refried beans
Mexican rice
warm flour tortillas

Instructions:
Serves 4 regular people or two hungry Texans. Trim fat from steak. Pound lightly to tenderize. Place meat in non-metallic container. Top with onion rings. Combine remaining ingredients. Pour over meat and onions. Cover and refrigerate overnight. (At this point he says to go out and just party, party, party -- just forget about these tasty fajitas 'til tomorrow.) Next day - or whenever you find your way back home, remove the meat and onions, reserving the marinade. Separate the meat and onions. Place meat on grill, basting often with the marinade and turning often to prevent charring. You gotta do this on a grill - it's not the same in a broiler. Meanwhile, sauté'' the onions in butter with some green and maybe some yellow peppers sliced into strips. When the meat's done, slice it into thin strips, cutting across the grain. Serve with homemade refried beans, Mexican rice, guacamole, picante sauce or salsa, sour cream, grated cheddar, your sauté''ed veggies and of course, warm flour tortillas to hold it all together. Bubba uses handmade tortillas he gets from a nearby restaurant. They're much better than store bought. Hint: I think this recipe is even better with chicken, but don't tell Bubba I said that, 'cause he thinks real men eat beef, and only sissies eat chicken! Thanks again Bill, Bubba and Billy Joe.
