Categories     Dinner     Lunch     Sauce

Time 2h30m

Number Of Ingredients 9

Kosher salt, about 1/2 teaspoon per pound of meat
Juice of one lime
1 tablespoon soy sauce
A splash of beer
2 tablespoons sugar
1 teaspoon ground cumin
1 teaspoon fresh ground black pepper
1 teaspoon garlic powder
1 teaspoon smoked paprika

Steps:

  • Gather the ingredients.
  • Season the meat with kosher salt on both sides. Use about 1/2 teaspoon per pound of meat, or about as much as you would add at the table if the meat were served unseasoned. Place in the refrigerator for at least two hours, or overnight.
  • When the meat has finished dry-brining, prepare the marinade. Place a large zip-top bag into a bowl and fold the edges of the bag over the edges of the bowl. Add all remaining ingredients and stir to combine.
  • Place the steak in the bag and coat it with the marinade. Seal the bag most of the way, squeeze out as much air as you can, then fully seal. Place in the refrigerator for about 30 minutes.
  • Grill or pan sear to your desired temperature.

EASY CHICKEN FAJITA MARINADE



Easy Chicken Fajita Marinade image

This is a simple fajita marinade that has been bounced around in my family for at least 15 years. It's simple, tasty, easily altered for a twist on the taste, and can be easily prepared in under 15 minutes. Serve with other fajita elements and enjoy! Some ideas: sauteed green bell pepper with white or yellow onions, jalapeno slaw, homemade salsa (tomato or mango), etc.
