Rib Eye Fajitas On The Grill Recipes

Steps:

• For the steak and marinade: Add the orange juice, soy sauce, cumin, salt, garlic, lemon juice, chipotle, 1/2 cup of the olive oil and some black pepper to a food processor and blend until smooth and combined.
• Put the steaks into a resealable plastic bag and pour the marinade over. Seal the bag and massage the marinade into the steaks to ensure they are totally coated. Marinate, refrigerated, for as long as it takes to roast the chiles and get the other ingredients ready for the quesadillas.
• For the roasted poblano chiles: Roast the chiles by using metal tongs to hold them one-by-one over the flame of your stovetop until the skin is totally charred. (If you don't have a gas stove, you can use an outdoor grill OR place them on a baking sheet directly under your oven's broiler.) When totally blackened, place the chiles in a large resealable plastic bag and seal the bag to allow them to sweat for a good 20 minutes. Then use a knife to scrape off most of the blackened skin. Slice the chiles in half lengthwise and scrape out the seeds and membranes, then slice into strips.
• Heat the remaining 2 tablespoons olive oil in a grill pan over high heat. Remove the steaks from the marinade and turn the heat to medium low. Grill for 5 to 6 minutes each side for medium rare. Let the steaks rest for 5 minutes, then slice.
• For the quesadillas: Build the quesadillas by laying some cheese on 6 of the tortillas, then some slices of steak and some of the poblano chile strips. Sprinkle with the tomato and onion. Top with a little more grated cheese and then place the remaining tortillas on top.
• Melt 1/2 tablespoon of butter in a clean skillet over medium heat and lay a quesadilla in the skillet. Cook until golden on the bottom, 3 to 4 minutes. Carefully flip the quesadilla to the other side, adding another 1/2 tablespoon butter to the skillet at the same time. Continue cooking until the second side is golden, 3 to 4 minutes. Repeat with the remaining quesadillas.
• To serve: Cut the quesadillas into wedges and top with pico de gallo and salsa if desired.

Steps:

• To marinate the meat:
• In a large (4-cup) measuring cup, combine the soy sauce, lime juice, Worcestershire sauce, garlic, wine, and vegetable oil to make the marinade. Put the steaks in a large, heavy-duty, self-sealing plastic bag, pour in the marinade, seal, and refrigerate for at least 4 hours or overnight.
• Preheat an outdoor grill; preheat the oven to 250°F. Grill the chiles and bell peppers whole until they blister and brown, turning with tongs every few minutes to ensure they roast on all sides; remove from the heat. Core and seed them, slice them lengthwise into 1/2-inch strips, and sprinkle them with lemon juice and a pinch of salt. Wrap them in aluminum foil and keep them warm in the oven until ready to serve. Wrap the tortillas in foil and put in the oven to warm with the peppers. Remove the steaks from the marinade, drain, and grill according to your preference. Grill the onion slices along with the steak, about 5 minutes per side.
• To serve, slice the steaks thinly; arrange on a large platter with the grilled sliced onion and the chiles and peppers. Alongside the platter, set out the warm tortillas and bowls of sour cream and guacamole. Beans à la Charra, served in small bowls, is another classic fajita accompaniment.
• Variation
• Substitute boneless, skinless chicken breasts or shrimp for the beef. Marinate the chicken according to the directions above. For the shrimp, skip the marinade and just rub them with a little kosher salt and pepper before grilling.

Steps:

• In a shallow dish, combine soy sauce, onions, brown sugar, garlic, ginger and pepper; add the steaks and turn to coat. Cover and refrigerate 8 hours or overnight., Drain and discard marinade. Grill steaks, covered, over medium heat 5-7 minutes on each side or until meat reaches desired doneness (for medium-rare, a thermometer should read 135°; medium, 140°; medium-well, 145°).
