FAJITA PITAS

I was late coming home one evening and forgot to pick up tortillas for the fajitas we planned for dinner. So we used pita bread that I had in the freezer instead. The warm chicken-filled pockets, garnished with a homemade sauce and other tasty toppings, are often requested when we're hungry for something in a hurry. -Diana Jones, Springtown, Texas

Steps:

  • Pulse the beans, 4 of the sun-dried tomatoes, 2 tablespoons of the oil, 2 tablespoons water, vinegar, granulated garlic and 1/2 teaspoon salt in a food processor until blended and semi-smooth.

  • Start with the marinade. Place the garlic, lime juice, oil, salt, cumin, paprika, chili powder, and pepper in a large Ziploc bag. Add the chicken or steak to the same bad with the marinade. Close the bag, and get as much air out as possible. Mush the chicken around to make sure the marinade is covering the chicken. Place in the fridge for 30 minutes.
  • While the chicken or steak is marinating, heat up 1 tablespoon of olive oil over medium high. Add the peppers and onion to the hot pan. Cook down the peppers and onions for around 10 minutes, or until soft.
  • Heat up a separate grill pan to medium high. Once the chicken or steak has finished marinating place each piece on the grill pan, and cook until desired temperature is reached.
  • For chicken be sure to cook it through (about 15 minutes each side depending on how thick the breasts are). For the steak it depends on what temperature you like. I like medium rare, so I cooked it about 8-10 minutes each side.
