Fajitas (8/10 if made correctly)

Fajitas used to be one of my go to meals in college. Back then it was just a matter of grilling up some chicken with a boat load of McCormicks fajitas seasoning. A few years ago I made a recipe from Alton Browns show good eats and it turned out great. I am going to give it another attempt but make a few modifications from other recipes I have found.

1/2 cup olive oil

1/3 cup soy sauce

1/4 cup red wine vinegar

1 minced shallot

2 cloves garlic

1/4 cup lime juice

1/4 cup orange juice

1 teaspoon pepper flakes

1 teaspoon cumin

1 teaspoon chili powder

1/4 teaspoon pepper

1 teaspoon oregano

3 table spoons brown sugar

2 pounds skirt steak

Add wet ingredients first (except olive oil). Then add all dry ingredients. Finally add olive oil slowly. Marinate steak in freezer bag for minimum of 1 hour. I will need to try what happens if left overnight.

After done marinating cook on med/high heat for approx 3 minutes per side. After done place in a foil boat and allow to sit for 5 minutes in their juices. Slice meat against the grain and place back in the foil boat to absorb more juices.

For the veggies just jullian multi-color peppers and onions and toss in olive oil and season with salt and pepper. Grill on very high heat and don't turn right away. I am going to try cooking them in the same skillet that I cooked the steak in.
