Save a little money and skip the Mexican restaurant in favor of a homemade meal. The meat and vegetables for these colorful fajita wraps are marinated in a zesty mixture of lime, garlic, and other seasonings, giving them a flavor that's out of this world.
Very good. Pretty easy too. I made half the recipe and I forgot to do the boiling of the marinade and I think that would have added some good flavor. We served with refried beans, and added sliced avocado to the tortillas.
Still our favorite recipe - we've been using this recipe for years and it is a winner. We like to use sirloin steak and chicken breasts, and stir-fry or roast the veggies. Highly recommended!
We double the lime juice and garlic in the marinade and probably use double the cilantro as a garnish. Makes a nice display for company.
I made this without the beef (because I didn't have any) and doubled the chicken. The marinade i so so good. I definitely recommend following the directions of marinating the meat for at least four hours. My husband loved this dish. I served it with saffron rice. Delicioso!
Love, love, love this recipe. I have made it for company a couple of times and have always gotten lots of compliments. I also make it for camping trips and it works great. I prepare the bags of chicken and veggies in the marinade, put it in the cooler and pop it on the grill at the campsite. It's awesome!
This one is a keeper. The marinade is very flavorful.
It's so nice to find new delicious things for dinner. Made with chicken only and chicken broth. Marinaded chicken and veggies (peppers, onions and mushrooms) then sauteed in a pan. The lime is a key ingredient, adds some great flavor! Served over rice, not in a wrap. Was delicious!
Since this was introduced in 2000, it was our family's favorite. Simple and easy, but taste great!!!
These fajitas were awsome! The only reason that I didn't give it five stars was because I am a very very picky cook. you should definately try these. I left out the bland chili powder and added MEXICAN CHIPOLTE CHILI POWDER 2 teaspoons, and added another teaspoon after cooking the meal. I also cooked vidialla onions and red bell pepper with it. It was awsome :)
Delicious!! However, I thought the chicken was more flavorful and tender than the steak. The veggies were perfectly grilled (used a grill basket) and equally delicious! A definite recipe keeper!
My family and friends loved this recipe, marinating the veggies makes it all the better. I marinated overnight and the flavor was delicious. If you like more of a punch, my husband added hot sauce. Will make again for sure! I made with brown rice with black beans, onions and peppers as a side,
I tried this recipe and it was extremely good. I added it to my favorites.
An old favorite. MY family loves them and I usually make homemade guacamole as a side dish....Delish!!!!
I am only giving this recipe 4 stars b/c it didn't have as much flavor as I expected. I did substitue chicken broth for beef broth b/c I only used chicken. I didn't grill...wonder if that was the lack of flavor???
This is really good. I've made it twice now to rave reviews - but both times I only had chicken on hand. So instead of beef broth in the marinade, I used chicken broth; and it's still a winner. I put the veggies on a cast-iron skillet on the stove - they seem too small to deal with on a grill. This will be the go-to fajita recipe in our family for years to come.
Very good. Would definitely make again. We fixed this for our Supper Club on Mexican food nite! It got eaten up! I had such a large amount to do that I did fix the onions and peppers in my wok on the stove.
