Steps:
- Slice the skirt steak into roughly 3-inch (7-cm) pieces. Transfer the pieces to a medium bowl.
- Thinly slice the pork shoulder, then transfer the pieces to a separate medium bowl.
- Pound the chicken thighs flat, then slice them in quarters. Transfer the pieces to a third medium bowl.
- In a small bowl, combine 2 tablespoons salt, 1 tablespoon pepper, paprika, chili powder, cumin, garlic, and lime juice. Stir until there are no lumps.
- Evenly divide the marinade among the 3 bowls of chicken, steak, and pork.
- Toss the meats until they are evenly coated, then refrigerate for at least 30 minutes.
- Preheat the oven to 300°F (150°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
- Place 3 onion halves in the middle of the baking sheet, then insert a skewer in each onion, evenly spaced, near the inner edges.
- Thread a piece of chicken onto one skewer, then a piece of steak onto the second, followed by a piece of pork onto the third. Repeat with the rest of the meat.
- Secure another onion half onto the tops of the skewers to hold the towers together.
- Bake for about 1½ hours, until the meat is slightly brown on the edges.
- Increase the oven temperature to 450°F (230°C).
- On one side of the baking sheet, toss the bell peppers and sliced onion with the remaining ½ tablespoon of salt, remaining ½ tablespoon of pepper, and the oil.
- On the other side of the baking sheet, spread out the tortillas. Cover the tortilla side with foil.
- Bake for 15 minutes, until the edges of the meat and the vegetables are slightly charred.
- Slice your meat of choice into a tortilla, add vegetables, and top with guacamole, sour cream, pico de gallo, and a squeeze of lime.
- Enjoy!

BARBECUED CHICKEN FAJITA SKEWERS

Steps:
- Make the marinade. In a large bowl, juice both the limes. Add the oregano, spices, olive oil and garlic, and mix together. Dice the chicken, then get your child to stir it through the marinade, and set aside.
- Prepare the vegetables. Deseeding the peppers and halving the onion is tricky, so do this yourself. Children aged from about seven or above can cut them into chunks using a child-friendly knife.
- Make your skewers. Carefully thread alternate pieces of chicken, peppers and onion onto your skewers. Smaller children might find this a little hard, so the best way is to stab the ingredients and push them up the skewers. When you've used up all the ingredients, set aside. Can be made several hours ahead and chilled until ready to cook.
- Prepare the guacamole. Stone and peel the avocados, then tip into a bowl with the other ingredients. Get your child to use a potato masher to mash everything together and tip into a serving dish.
- Cook the skewers. Heat a barbecue or griddle pan. Cook the skewers for 10-12 mins, turning, until they are cooked all the way through. A child from the age of eight can watch over a griddle and turn the skewers with a pair of tongs. Serve the skewers on heated tortillas with the guacamole, soured cream, chopped coriander, lime wedges on the side and chilli sauce for those who like a touch of spice.
