I got this recipe off the box of a cooking set I was given as a gift a few years ago. It's very worth the wait.
Marinade
1 tsp. cocoa powder
1 tbsp. chili powder
1 tbsp. minced garlic
1 tsp. ground cumin
1/8 tsp. tobasco sauce
1/4 cup tomato paste
1/2 cup tequila
1 tsp. salt
1/4 cup lime juice
2 tbsp. sugar
4 tbsp. cilantro, chopped
1/4 cup water
Fajitas
2 tbsp. vegetable oil
1.5 lbs chicken, cut into strips
2 limes, quartered
2 yellow squash, sliced
1 purple onion, sliced
1 red bell pepper, sliced
1 green pepper, sliced
Mix all marinade ingredients and marinade chicken for at least 2-3 hours.
Heat oil in a frying pan or wok. I know it's goofy but I love cooking fajitas in my wok. It works perfectly! Remove chicken from marinade, reserving marinade. Cook chicken until done and remove from pan - place in a heated dish and cover with foil to keep warm. Add vegetables to pan and cook until tender. Remove vegetables and place with chicken. Add marinade to the pan and cook until heated through, to kill any bacteria from the raw chicken. Add chicken and vegetables back to the pan and mix with marinade.
Serve in tortillas with cheese, sour cream, salsa or whatever else floats your boat.
