MAGIC CHICKEN, BEEF OR SHRIMP FAJITAS
My husband's recipe for fajitas, based on a recipe found in a Mexican cookbook by Jane Milton and his own experimentation. The inclusion of cinnamon is what to me gives these fajitas such a great flavor! Serve with your favorite accompaniments along with rice and beans and a strong margarita!

Steps:
- Cut meat in strips (against the grain) and place in medium sized freezer bag.
- Drizzle enough oil over the meat to coat and shake bag.
- Add all all seasonings to bag, shake to coat meat.
- Add enough lime juice to coat meat, plus dash of tequila.
- Marinade (ideal time for steak or chicken-- 1 1/2 -2 hours, shrimp-- no more than 30 minutes).
- Heat cast iron skillet on medium-high until smoking, add approximately 1/4 of the meat plus onion and peppers and sear for approximately 3-5 minutes. If cooking just chicken or shrimp, you may need to add a small amount of oil (1 tsp). Do not overcrowd the skillet or you will not achieve a good sear.

BLACKSTONE CHICKEN, STEAK AND SHRIMP FAJITA
Fajitas are a crowd favorite, so we created this recipe to feed a crowd. Tender chicken breasts, juicy skirt steak, briny shrimp and colorful peppers all get tossed in a chipotle-lime marinade to really amp up the flavor. Everything is prepared ahead of time then goes on a super-hot Blackstone® flat-top style griddle to sizzle away and cook in a matter of minutes. Your guests or family are then free to customize their own fajitas with an array of toppings.

Steps:
- Whisk together the lime juice, oil, garlic, chile powder, oregano, cumin and 3 tablespoons salt in a medium bowl. Combine all the onions and peppers in a large bowl. Put the chicken, steak and shrimp in 3 individual bowls and evenly divide the marinade between the vegetables and proteins (about 3 tablespoons each). Toss each to coat and set aside to marinate for 30 minutes.
- Set all 4 burners to high on a 36-inch Blackstone® Griddle Cooking Station and preheat for 10 minutes.
- Spread a tablespoon of oil on the griddle and add the onions and peppers in a single layer. Cook, tossing with a large metal spatula occasionally, until starting to soften and brown in spots, about 3 minutes. Push the pepper mixture to one half of the griddle then add the chicken in a single layer to the empty half of the griddle; cook until browned on one side, 2 to 3 minutes, then flip and push closer to the peppers. Add the steak in a single layer and cook until browned on one side and the chicken is cooked through, 2 to 3 minutes. Place the chicken on top of the peppers and flip the steak so it is closer to the peppers. Add the shrimp in a single layer and cook until browned on one side and the steak is cooked through, 2 to 3 minutes. Toss everything together and spread in a single layer. The shrimp will continue to cook through. Cook, tossing occasionally until the peppers are soft and everything is well combined, about 3 minutes. Transfer to a large serving platter.
- Scrape the griddle clean with your spatula and cook the tortillas until hot and pliable, about 30 seconds per side.
- Serve the fajitas immediately with lime wedges, cilantro leaves, salsa, guacamole, sour cream and shredded cheese.
BEEF OR CHICKEN FAJITAS
I developed this marinade for fajitas when the local grocery store quite carrying my favorite marinade. The longer you marinade, the better they are! I have never measured my ingredients, I just dump and taste. Ingredient measurements may be changed to suite taste.

BEEF OR CHICKEN FAJITAS
This recipe came from our church cookbook. I like this recipe because I can use either chicken or beef. I have tried both and I like the chicken the best. You can leave out the crushed red pepper which is what I do if you don't like your food spicy.
