Fajitas (Chicken and/or Steak)
This marinade recipe can also be used not only for fajitas but for any of your favorite meat.
Ingredients:
- 1/4 cup lime juice, freshly squeezed
- 2 tbs olive oil or vegetable oil
- 4 garlic cloves, crushed
- 2 tsp soy sauce
- 1 tsp salt
- 1/2 tsp liquid hickory smoke
- 1/2 tsp cayenne pepper
- 1/4 tsp black pepper, freshly ground
Directions:
- Combine all marinade ingredients in large resealable bag. Add chicken or steak. Marinate in refrigerator for at least 3 hours or overnight.
Comments:
- If serving chicken and steak, combine the marinade ingredients and then split in half. Marinate the meat separately.
- Serve with flour tortillas, sour cream, cheddar cheese, guacamole, etc.
- I never had purchased skirt steak before until this recipe. Didn't even know it existed. It is perfect for fajitas and very tender. I am always able to find this where the steaks are. However, you may need to ask the butcher for assistance.
Tips:
- Press down and roll the lime on your counter before you squeeze or juice it. This will soften the fruit and releases the juices easier.
