Mexican
1 pound beef skirt steak
1 centiliter garlic -- chopped
juice from 1 large lime
1 teaspoon cumin
1 medium yellow onion -- sliced in rings
1 teaspoon liquid smoke
1/3 cup Worcestershire sauce
1/4 cup soy sauce
1 tablespoon chopped fresh cilantro
pepper to taste
green and yellow peppers
guacamole
refried beans
Mexican rice
warm flour tortillas
Those self-appointed guardians of Texas cuisine, Bubba and Billy
Joe, stopped by the other day and saw a request for fajitas so Bubba
asked me to post his version.
Serves 4 regular people or two hungry Texans.
Trim fat from steak. Pound lightly to tenderize. Place meat in non-
metallic container. Top with onion rings. Combine remaining
ingredients. Pour over meat and onions. Cover and refrigerate
overnight. (At this point he says to go out and just party, party,
party -- just forget about these tasty fajitas 'til tomorrow.)
Next day - or whenever you find your way back home, remove the meat
and onions, reserving the marinade. Separate the meat and onions.
Place meat on grill, basting often with the marinade and turning
often to prevent charring.
You gotta do this on a grill - it's not the same in a broiler.
Meanwhile, saute the onions in butter with some green and maybe
some yellow peppers sliced into strips. When the meat's done, slice
it into thin strips, cutting across the grain.
Serve with homemade refried beans, Mexican rice, guacamole, picante
sauce or salsa, sour cream, grated cheddar, your sauteed veggies
and of course, warm flour tortillas to hold it all together. Bubba
uses handmade tortillas he gets from a nearby restaurant. They're
much better than store bought.
Hint: I think this recipe is even better with chicken, but don't
tell Bubba I said that, 'cause he thinks real men eat beef, and only
sissies eat chicken!
Thanks again Bill, Bubba and Billy Joe.
