Okie Sawbones, SASS #77381 Posted November 11, 2011 Share Posted November 11, 2011 Lupe Tortilla's Fajitas 2 lbs skirt steaks 3 garlic cloves, peeled and mashed ⅓ cup peanut oil, plus 2 tablespoons peanut oil 4 tablespoons tequila 1 teaspoon salt 4 tablespoons fresh lime juice (from real limes) 1 large white onion, sliced into thin crescents (half rings) 3 green bell peppers or assorted color bell peppers, cut into strips 1 teaspoon ground cumin Cut the steak into pieces that will fit on your grill, or into your grill pan or skillet. Place the pieces of meat into a non-reactive bowl. Mix the garlic, lime juice, cumin, tequila, salt, and ⅓ cup vegetable oil. Pour over the meat and marinade for at least 2 hours. Overnight is best. Remove the meat from the marinade and grill over hot coals or in a grill pan or skillet over med-high heat. Do not allow meat to dry by overcooking. Heat the remaining 2 Tbs. vegetable oil and sauté peppers and onions over med-high heat until they are crisp/tender. Cut the grilled meat into strips and serve with pepper and onion mixture. Serve with warm flour or corn tortillas. Can also serve with optional sides: sour cream, avocados, guacamole, salsa, cheese, lettuce, etc. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yellowhouse Sam # 25171 Posted November 11, 2011 Share Posted November 11, 2011 Hmmm...the other thing thats a little off to me is that you should set the tequila aside and as you're cooking have a shooter. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
