Categories     main-dish

Time 40m

Yield 2 servings

Number Of Ingredients 14

Olive oil
2 boneless, skinless chicken thighs, sliced
Salt
3 cloves garlic, chopped
Kernels from 1 ear corn
1 poblano pepper, sliced
1/2 red onion, sliced
1 teaspoon finely chopped fresh cilantro, plus leaves for garnish

Red pepper flakes
2 flour tortillas
1/4 cup sour cream
Lime zest and juice
1/2 cup grated pepper jack cheese

Steps:

  • Heat some olive oil in a pan over high heat. Sprinkle the chicken with some salt, then place in the pan. Cook until cooked through, about 7 minutes per side. Remove from the pan and set aside.
  • Heat some more olive oil in the same pan. Add the garlic, corn, peppers and onions, followed by the cilantro and cumin. Add salt and red pepper flakes to taste. Cook for about 7 minutes -- the vegetables should still have some bite to them.

1 pound Yukon Gold potatoes, cut into 1-inch pieces
1 head garlic, cloves separated and peeled
3 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil
Kosher salt and freshly ground pepper
4 skinless, boneless chicken breasts (about 6 ounces each)

CHICKEN FAJITAS



Chicken Fajitas image

The ingredient that makes this marinade both spicy and sweet is adobo sauce from canned chiles in adobo, a useful sauce that I had not thought to use in marinades until I was introduced to the idea by the cookbook author and television host Pati Jinich. The sauce has enough heat, so I don't use the canned chipotles, though you could add one if you wanted. I hold back a couple of tablespoons of the marinade and use it to finish the vegetables and deglaze the pan.

Time 1h45m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 19

Finely grated zest of 1 lime (about 2 teaspoons)
1/4 cup fresh lime juice
Salt and black pepper
2 teaspoons cumin seeds, lightly toasted and ground
2 tablespoons adobo sauce from canned chipotles in adobo
1 chipotle chile in adobo, seeded and minced (optional)
1/4 cup plus 2 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil
4 large garlic cloves, minced or put through a press
1 1/2 pounds boneless, skinless chicken breast
1 large red or yellow onion, halved and sliced
2 red bell peppers (or 1 red and 1 orange or yellow), seeded and sliced about 1/4 inch thick
1 green bell pepper, seeded and sliced about 1/4 inch thick
1 jalapeño or 2 serrano chiles, minced
1/4 cup chopped cilantro
4 large flour or 8 corn tortillas
1 tablespoon grapeseed or canola oil (or use olive oil)
1 romaine heart, sliced crosswise
Salsa fresca, for serving (see recipe)
Queso fresco, for sprinkling

Steps:

  • In a small bowl, combine lime zest and juice, 1/2 teaspoon salt, 1 teaspoon ground cumin, the adobo sauce and optional minced chipotle, 1/4 cup olive oil and half the garlic. Mix well. Set aside 2 tablespoons of the marinade.
  • Season chicken with salt and pepper and place in a resealable bag. Pour in the marinade and seal bag. Move chicken around to coat well, place bag in a bowl and refrigerate for 30 minutes (or up to 12 hours). Flip the bag over from time to time to redistribute marinade.
  • Heat a large, heavy skillet over medium-high heat and add 2 tablespoons olive oil. When oil is hot, add onions and cook, stirring, until they soften and begin to color, 3 to 4 minutes. Stir in bell peppers and chile and cook, stirring, until peppers begin to soften, 3 to 4 minutes.
  • Turn heat to medium, add remaining garlic and cumin and salt to taste, and cook, stirring often, until peppers are nicely seared, softened and beginning to caramelize, 5 to 8 minutes.
  • Pour in reserved 2 tablespoons marinade and scrape bottom of pan with a wooden spoon to deglaze. Add half the cilantro, and stir together. Taste and adjust seasoning. Remove from heat but keep warm.
  • Wrap tortillas in foil and warm in a low oven, or wrap in a towel and warm in a steamer or in the microwave.
  • Heat grapeseed or canola oil over medium-high heat in a large, heavy skillet. Remove chicken breasts from marinade, reserving marinade, and pat dry with paper towels. Add to pan, rounded side down, and sear for 3 to 4 minutes, until lightly charred. Flip breasts over, pour in marinade, cover pan and reduce heat to medium. Cook 12 to 15 minutes, flipping over from time to time, until a thermometer registers 160 to 165 degrees when inserted into thickest part. Transfer to a cutting board and cover with foil. Let sit 5 to 10 minutes, then cut across the grain into 1/2- to 3/4-inch thick strips.
  • Arrange lettuce on a platter, then place chicken next to lettuce. Tip juices from cutting board over chicken and sprinkle with cilantro. Serve vegetables on the same platter or separately. Serve with warm tortillas, salsa and crumbled queso fresco.

CHEVY'S CHICKEN FAJITAS



Chevy's Chicken Fajitas image

This recipe originally came from the Chevy's and Rio Bravo Cookbook. I've made it for about ten years, for groups as large as 50 who all raved about its flavor and authenticity. The Achiote Paste can be found at Latin grocers, or by mail at MexGrocer.com. It's a little bit of work but well worth it. It's essential to use fresh orange and pineapple juice, for the enzymes, if at all possible. Time listed includes the marinating time.
