Categories     main-dish

Time 1h15m

Yield 6 to 8 fajitas

Number Of Ingredients 14

2 tablespoons vegetable oil, plus more for the grill and brushing
Grated zest and juice of 1 lime
1 clove garlic, grated
1 tablespoon chili powder
2 teaspoons ground cumin
1 teaspoon ground coriander
1 teaspoon packed dark brown sugar
Kosher salt and freshly ground pepper
1 pound skirt steak, cut into 4- to 6-inch-long pieces
1 pound skinless, boneless chicken breasts
3 bell peppers (assorted colors), halved lengthwise and seeded
2 large onions, sliced into 1/2-inch-thick rounds
12 to 16 small flour tortillas
Shredded Mexican cheese blend, sour cream, salsa and guacamole, for serving

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.
