Freezer Bag Chicken Fajita Stir-Fry image

This Mexican-inspired stir-fry is the perfect quick weekend project: peppers, onions and chicken are tossed with a chili-spiced oil and frozen.

Provided by Food Network Kitchen

Time 30m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 11

1/4 cup vegetable oil
2 tablespoons chili powder
2 teaspoons ground cumin
Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
2 cloves garlic, finely chopped
1 red bell pepper, cut into thin strips
1 green bell pepper, cut into thin strips
1 small red onion, thinly sliced
1 1/4 pounds boneless, skinless chicken breasts, cut into 1/2-inch pieces
12 small flour tortillas, warmed
Guacamole, salsa, sour cream and lime wedges, for serving

Steps:

  • Whisk together the oil, chili powder, cumin, 1 teaspoon salt and several grinds black pepper in a large microwave-safe bowl. Add the garlic, peppers and onion and toss to coat. Cover with plastic wrap and microwave until the vegetables are crisp-tender, about 2 minutes. Remove the plastic wrap and let cool completely.
  • Transfer the vegetables with the marinade to a large resealable plastic bag and add the chicken. Squeeze out most of the air and seal, then toss gently to coat the chicken with the marinade. Freeze until ready to use. Let thaw in the refrigerator for at least 24 hours before cooking.
  • Pour the chicken, vegetables and marinade into a large skillet and heat over high heat. Cook, stirring often, until the chicken is cooked through, about 12 minutes. Season with salt and pepper.
  • Divide the chicken and vegetables among 4 plates. Serve with 3 tortillas each and the guacamole, salsa, sour cream and lime wedges on the side.

  • When ready to grill, mix remaining Spice Mix with 2 tablespoons olive oil to create a Spice Rub. Discard steak marinade and pat steak dry with paper towel (just so steak is not wet, not to remove marinade/spices). Rub steak evenly all over with Spice Rub and let rest at room temperature for 30-60 minutes.
  • Grease and preheat grill to medium-high heat. Grill steak for 5-6 minutes per side, turning once, for medium-rare. For medium or medium well, continue cooking steak over indirect flame for an additional 5-10 minutes per side, depending on thickness. Check for doneness with a meat thermometer inserted right in the middle of the steak. Thermometer should read: 135/140 degrees F for medium rare, 145 degrees F for medium. Remove steak and let rest 10 minutes before thinly slicing across the grain.
  • While steak is resting, grease grill again and grill vegetables covered for approximately 3-5 minutes per side, taking care not to burn them. Remove to a cutting board. Once cool, slice peppers and onions into thin strips.
