Bella Asada Fajitas Recipes

Steps:

• Add the bourbon, juices, Sugar Gum and bitters to a metal cocktail shaker. Top with ice cubes, seal and shake vigorously.
• Fill a small mason jar with ice cubes and fresh mint. Strain the liquid over the ice and stir. Top with shaved ice. Garnish with the muddled blackberries.
• In small saucepan, combine the sugar and 1/2 cup water. Bring to a boil and stir until combined. Cool, bottle and store until use.

Steps:

• Cover the chicken breast with plastic wrap and gently pound to a uniform thickness to ensure even cooking.
• Season the chicken breast with salt, pepper, and dried tarragon.
• Pan saute the chicken breast in 2 teaspoons butter and 1 tablespoon olive oil over medium-high heat. Once the chicken in browned on one side, about 4 minutes, flip and add white wine and continue cooking until the internal temperature reads 165 degrees F on an instant read thermometer, about 5 minutes more.
• In another medium skillet, heat the remaining 1 tablespoon olive oil over medium-high heat. Add the sliced mushrooms and cook until golden on each side and tender, about 5 minutes. Remove from pan. Add the spinach to the skillet and cook until slightly wilted, about 2 minutes.
• Meanwhile, roast the red bell pepper under the broiler until the skin is blackened on all sides, about 6 minutes. Place the pepper in a bowl covered with plastic wrap and allow to steam 5 minutes. Peel, seed and slice into 1/4-inch strips.
• In a small bowl, whisk to combine the basil pesto and mayonnaise.
• Heat a large nonstick skillet or griddle on medium heat. Butter one side of both slices of the bread and place them butter-side down on a cutting board. Build each sandwich by beginning the layering on one of the slices of bread with the sliced mozzarella cheese, the sauteed mushrooms, spinach, roasted red peppers, and chicken. Spread 2 tablespoons of the pesto mayonnaise on the other slice and place it buttered-side up on top.
• Place the sandwich on the griddle and cook until golden, about 4 minutes. Flip and continue to cook the other side until it is golden and the filling is warmed and cheese is melted, about 4 more minutes.

Steps:

• Make the guacamole: scoop the avocado flesh into a bowl; add the remaining guacamole ingredients; stir with a fork until combined.
• Cover with plastic wrap to prevent browning.
• Make the rub: in a small bowl, combine all the rub ingredients.
• Lightly brush or spray the flank steak on both sides with oil; season steak evenly with the rub.
• Let steak stand at room temperature for 20-30 minutes before grilling.
• Lightly brush or spray the onion and bell peppers on both sides with oil.
• Grill over direct medium heat until tender, turning once; the onion will take 8-10 minutes and the bell peppers will take 6-8 minutes.
• Cut the onion and bell peppers into bite-sized pieces.
• Grill the flank steak over direct high heat until cooked to desired doneness, 8-10 minutes for medium-rare, turning once.
• Remove from grill and let rest 3-5 minutes.
• Wrap the tortillas in a foil package; grill the package over direct medium heat to warm the tortillas, 2-3 minutes, turning once.
• To serve: cut the flank steak against the grain into ¼ inch slices.
• Place the warm tortillas, sliced, meat, onions, peppers, and guacamole in separate serving dishes.
• Let each person make their own fajita by placing the fillings down the center of each tortilla and adding Tabasco to taste; wrap and serve warm.

Steps:

• Whisk orange juice, cumin, chile pepper, and sea salt together in a bowl and pour into a resealable plastic bag. Add the steak, coat with the marinade, squeeze out excess air, and seal the bag. Marinate in the refrigerator for 24 hours.
• Preheat an outdoor grill for medium-high heat and lightly oil the grate. Remove steak from marinade and discard marinade.
• Cook the steak until it starts to firm and is reddish-pink and juicy in the center, 3 to 4 minutes per side. An instant-read thermometer inserted into the center should read 130 degrees F (54 degrees C).
