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.

Steps:
- In a small bowl, combine the orange juice, olive oil, lime juice, lime zest, agave nectar (or brown sugar, if using), garlic, oregano, chili powder, and 1/2 teaspoon salt. Pour the mixture into a 1-gallon-size resealable bag. Add the chicken breasts, chicken thighs and steak and refrigerate for 4 hours, turning the meat occasionally. Put a grill pan over medium-high heat or preheat a gas or charcoal grill. Remove the meat from the bag and season with salt. Reserve the marinade.
- Grill the chicken breasts for 6 to 8 minutes on each side and the chicken thighs for 8 to 10 minutes on each side or until cooked through. Grill the steak for 5 to 6 minutes each side for medium-well. Allow the meat to rest for 10 minutes before slicing.
- Meanwhile, put the marinade in a small saucepan and bring to a boil over medium-high heat (in order to kill any bacteria). Boil for 5 minutes until slightly thickened. Slice the meat into 1/4-inch thick pieces and put into serving bowls. Pour the cooked marinade over the meat and toss until coated. Serve the meat in warm tortillas.

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.

BEST CHICKEN OR STEAK FAJITAS EVER!
I am a big-time fajita lover and these really are the best! They come from Rachel Ray's cookbook (which I highly reccomend - 30 min. meals). If you dont like spicy, dont be alarmed, just lower the hot sauce and leave out the jalepeno - you dont want to miss this recipe!
