Steps:

  • Whisk the vegetable oil, lime zest and juice, garlic, chili powder, cumin, coriander, brown sugar, 1 teaspoon salt and a few grinds of pepper in a small bowl. Put the steak in a medium bowl. Place the chicken between 2 pieces of plastic wrap and pound on both sides with the flat side of a meat mallet or a heavy skillet until 1/2 inch thick. Transfer to a separate bowl. Divide the marinade between the steak and chicken and toss well. Refrigerate 30 minutes.
  • Preheat a grill to medium high. Oil the grates. Remove the steak and chicken from the marinade and season with salt. Grill, covered, 3 to 5 minutes per side for the steak and 6 to 7 minutes per side for the chicken. Transfer the steak and chicken to a cutting board and let rest 10 minutes.
  • Meanwhile, brush the bell peppers and onions with vegetable oil; season with salt. Cover and grill, turning, until charred, 6 to 8 minutes. Transfer to the cutting board. Wrap the tortillas in foil and warm on the grill, flipping once, 5 minutes. Slice the bell peppers and separate the onions into rings. Slice the steak and chicken. Serve the meat and vegetables with the tortillas and assorted toppings.

STEAK (OR CHICKEN) FAJITAS

These are so quick and tasty. You can use strips of boneless chicken breast instead of the beef. Feel free to double the marinade. The flavor is so great for such a short marination time. You can can do them up ahead of time and have the meat sit longer if you wish.

Chicken and Beef Fajitas image

Steps:

  • For the marinade: In a blender, combine the olive oil, chili powder, Worcestershire, cumin, red pepper flakes, garlic and lime juice. Next add the sugar, salt and pepper and blend the marinade until it's totally combined and smooth.
  • For the meat: Place the chicken and beef in separate 2-quart baking dishes or large resealable plastic storage bags. Pour the marinade over the chicken and beef and rub the marinade all over the meat. Give your hands a good wash, and then cover the dishes with plastic wrap and let them marinate in the fridge for 4 to 6 hours.
  • For the pico de gallo: Chop the tomatoes, jalapenos and onion into a very small dice. (Leave the seeds in your jalapenos for a hotter pico. Adjust the amount of jalapenos to your preferred temperature.) Next, chop up a nice-sized bunch of cilantro. Just remove and discard the long leafless stems before chopping. No need to remove the leaves from the stems completely. Place all of these ingredients together in a bowl and give it a good stir. Squeeze the juice of half a lime into the bowl. Add salt to taste and stir again.
  • For the fajita vegetables: Throw the onions and bell peppers into a bowl and toss with the olive oil and some salt and pepper.
  • When ready to cook, preheat the grill to high heat.
  • Cook the chicken on both sides until completely cooked through (or to an internal temperature of 165 degrees F), about 4 minutes per side. Remove it to a platter to rest for 5 to 10 minutes.
  • Grill the beef on both sides until completely cooked through, about 5 minutes in total. Remove it to a platter to rest for 5 to 10 minutes.
  • Tip the fajita vegetables into a grill basket and grill until cooked, tossing occasionally, about 10 minutes.
  • To put it all together: Pile the veggies on a platter. Slice the chicken and beef.
  • For the fixins: Wrap the tortillas in foil and warm through on the grill. Serve the chicken, beef and veggies with the warm tortillas, Fiesta Beans, grated cheese, sour cream, lime wedges and pico de gallo.
  • Place the beans in a large bowl and cover them with cold water. Set them aside and let them soak for 5 to 6 hours or overnight.
  • Drain and rinse the beans, and then place them in a large pot. Add the garlic, green, orange and red bell peppers and the onions. Cover them with about an inch of water, and then add the ham hock or bacon. Next add the chili powder, cumin, salt and pepper. Stir to combine, and then bring the mixture to a boil. Reduce the heat to low and simmer the beans until tender, about 2 hours. Check the liquid level about halfway through the cooking process; if you'd prefer the beans to be less soupy, you can ladle off about a third of the cooking liquid.

1/4 cup chili powder

1/2 teaspoon red pepper flakes

Steps:

  • 1. Put the cilantro, lime juice, broth, scallions, garlic, jalapeno, honey, and salt in a blender, puree until smooth. Reserve 2 tablespoons; do not wash out the blender.
  • Put chicken breasts in a medium bowl and the peppers and onions in another. Divide the remaining cilantro puree evenly between the chicken and the peppers and onions. Toss well to coat the chicken and vegetables and let stand, at room temperature, for 30 minutes.
  • 2. Add the avocado, 1/2 cup water, and the reserved 2 tablespoons cilantro sauce to the blender. Puree until smooth and season with salt. Set aside.
  • 3. Heat the oil in a small skillet set over medium heat until hot. Add the cumin and coriander and continue to cook until fragrant, about 30 seconds to 1 minute. Pour the spices over the yogurt and set aside for the flavors to blend. Stir before serving.
  • 4. Preheat a grill for medium-high/direct heat cooking. Oil the grill grates. Grill the chicken and vegetables, turning, until the vegetables are tender and the chicken reaches an internal temperature of 160 degrees F, about 5 to 8 minutes for the vegetables and 12 to 15 minutes for the chicken. Let chicken rest 5 minutes. Place the tortillas on the grill until just warmed through, about 30 seconds.
  • 5. To assemble the fajitas: slice the onions and peppers into thin strips and then slice the chicken. Place some peppers, onions, chicken and cilantro in a tortilla topped with the spiced yogurt and the avocado sauce.

AIR FRYER CHICKEN FAJITAS

Chicken fajitas in the air fryer doesn't get any easier than this. The chicken stays nice and moist while the vegetables have a nice crisp to them. Add 2 minutes of cook time if you prefer softer veggies. I like to toast my tortillas in the air fryer as well but it is not necessary. Serve with toppings of your choice such as salsa, sliced avocado, and cheese.

Steps:

  • Slice the chicken breasts in half horizontally, then cut them into thin strips. Put them in a bowl, add the remaining ingredients and rub into the chicken with your hands.
  • Heat the oil for the pepper mix in a large frying pan and fry the onion wedges for 6 mins or until softened. Turn the heat up high so the wedges char slightly at the edges, season well and, using a slotted spoon, lift them onto a baking tray and keep warm.
  • Add the peppers in batches, cook them the same way, then transfer to the baking tray with the onions. Cook the tomatoes in the same way and add them to the peppers.
  • Heat a griddle pan or use the same frying pan and cook the chicken in batches over a high heat - allow them to catch a little on the edges but don't overcook them. Add them to the baking tray to keep warm.
  • Heat the tortillas on the griddle, then wrap in foil and keep warm in the oven, or heat in the microwave following pack instructions.

  • Coat both sides of the flank steak with 1 tablespoon each salt and pepper, pressing into the steak. Place in a large freezer bag. Cut both limes in half and squeeze juice into the bag; add chili powder. Make sure all is mixed well and remove the air from the bag. Place in a refrigerator and marinate for about 3 hours.
  • Preheat an outdoor grill for medium-high heat and lightly oil the grate.
  • Season bell pepper and red onion with salt and pepper. Place in a grill pan and set aside.
  • Put black beans in a small pot on the stove over medium heat to heat through.
  • Cook steak on the preheated grill until browned on one side, 5 to 7 minutes. Spray vegetables with cooking spray and place them on the grill. Cook until vegetables begin to caramelize, turning often so they don't burn, and steak is beginning to firm and is hot and slightly pink in the center, 5 to 7 minutes. An instant-read thermometer inserted into the center should read 140 degrees F (60 degrees C) for medium doneness. Remove steak and vegetables from the grill.
  • Slice steak into thin strips. Place beans, steak, vegetables, and Mexican cheese onto the tortillas and serve.
