EASY CHICKEN FAJITA MARINADE
This is a simple fajita marinade that has been bounced around in my family for at least 15 years. It's simple, tasty, easily altered for a twist on the taste, and can be easily prepared in under 15 minutes. Serve with other fajita elements and enjoy! Some ideas: sauteed green bell pepper with white or yellow onions, jalapeno slaw, homemade salsa (tomato or mango), etc.

Steps:
- Whisk vegetable oil, chili powder, lime juice, honey, garlic powder, paprika, and black pepper in a bowl to make a marinade.

- Preheat an outdoor grill for medium-high heat and lightly oil the grate.
- Remove chicken strips from marinade; discard used marinade.
- Grill chicken on preheated grill until browned, the juices run clear, and an instant-read meat thermometer inserted into the thickest piece reads at least 160 degrees F (70 degrees C), about 10 minutes per side.

FAJITA MARINADE
Steps:
- Gather the ingredients.
- Season the meat with kosher salt on both sides. Use about 1/2 teaspoon per pound of meat, or about as much as you would add at the table if the meat were served unseasoned. Place in the refrigerator for at least two hours, or overnight.
- When the meat has finished dry-brining, prepare the marinade. Place a large zip-top bag into a bowl and fold the edges of the bag over the edges of the bowl. Add all remaining ingredients and stir to combine.
- Place the steak in the bag and coat it with the marinade. Seal the bag most of the way, squeeze out as much air as you can, then fully seal. Place in the refrigerator for about 30 minutes.
- Grill or pan sear to your desired temperature.

FAJITA MARINADE
I got this recipe from a friend of mine from Texas 20 years ago and it has become one of my family's favorites. You can use the marinade to flavor peppers, onions and/or mushrooms and cook them to go along with your fajitas. The leftover chicken fajitas are great the next day mixed in a green salad. Extra marinade can be stored in the refrigerator or freezer for later use.
