Ingrients & Directions


3 lb Skirt Steak 2 tb Garlic, Minced
2 Large Yellow Onions PICO DE GALLO
2 tb Vegetable Oil 1/2 c Fresh Cilantro, chopped
16 Flour/Whole Wheat Tortillas 2 Scallions, chopped(Grn.Onion
2 c Grated Cheese 2 Large Tomatoes, chopped
Lime Juice 1 ts Garlic, minced
1 tb Ground Black Pepper

1 Combine marinade ingredients in a large glass baking dish.
2 Peel the fatty membrane from both sides of the skirt Steak.
This requires a very sharp knife. Add meat to marinade and marinate
for at least 4 hours, preferably overnight. Keep it in the fridge if
you marinate overnight.
3 Make the PICO DE GALLO: combine all of the ingredients in a
small serving bowl.
4 Slice the yellow onions into 1/4″ slices, and cut each slice
into a semicircle. Grill the meat until it is cooked slightly less
than the way you like it. Meanwhile, saute’ the onions in th eoil
until they are soft. Use a large frying pan that will have enough
room for the meat later.
5 After removing the meat from the grill, slice it into strips
that are cut acrosss the grain. The strips should be 3-4 inches long
and 1/4 inch thick. Add the strips to the onions in the pan, and fry
for another minute or two.
6 Place on the table the pan full of meat, the bowl of pico de
gallo, a basket with the tortillas, a bowl with the guacamole, and a
bowl with the grated cheese. You amy wish to provide picante sauce
in addition.
7 Each person makes their own fajita by taking a tortilla,
spooning some of the meat onto it, then adding their choice of each
of the other ingredients in whatever combination they want.

TIME : 45 mins preparation, several hours marinating, 10 minutes
cooking.
