This is the second of two copycat Chili's fajitas recipes I have. I, personally, am not a cooked sweet pepper fan, so I prefer the older one that does not include any peppers. But, for the current version Chili's serves, with the peppers, this is good.
Chili’s Fajitas
1/4 cup lime juice 2 TBS olive oil 4 cloves garlic, crushed 2 tsp soy sauce 1 tsp salt 1/2 tsp liquid Barbecue Smoke® 1/2 tsp cayenne pepper 1/4 tsp black pepper 1 lb top sirloin steak OR 1 lb boned and skinned chicken breasts 2 TBS water 1 tsp soy sauce 1/2 tsp lime juice 1 dash salt 1 dash black pepper 1 TBS olive oil 1 large Spanish onion, sliced thin 1/2 green pepper, sliced thin 1/2 red pepper, seeded, sliced thin 1/2 yellow pepper, seeded, sliced thin
